I have mixed feelings about this... On one hand, if you're vegan and want white stuff to put into coffee, the closest word to that would be "milk". On the other hand, if i bought a "cheese and ham sandwich", I'd expect actual cheese and actual ham inside, without looking on the back side, if there is a "vegan" label or looking at ingredients list.

> I'd expect actual cheese and actual ham inside Would you? Really? Even if the product is genuinely indistinguishable? I would definitely be satisfied if it's indistinguishable, probably even before that.

  Well yeah, i bought a "ham and cheese sandwich" so give me ham and cheese. Anything else, I'd consider fraud. Otherwise the manufacturers can start replacing everything with cheaper alternatives... fllet mignon? Just mechanically/chemically tenderize some cheap cut, it will be indistinguishable, and sell it at a same price. Honey? Just replace it with syrup and aromas, noone will notice. Not enough actual milk in baby formula? Just add melamine, noone will notice.
