The only reason people think "butter" may not contain milk is because we let advertizers abuse that term to refer to anything vaguely resembling that texture.

- pacificmint 2y agoOf course milk doesn't mean milk anymore either, now that we got oat, almond and soy milk. Along with less common alternatives like coconut, hemp, rice, cashew and macadamia milk. The dairy industry is actually pretty annoyed with that and tries to get the rules changed so those beverages can not be called milk.
- kevinpet 2y agoBy "anymore" do you mean for the past 600 years? Because almond milk goes back about as far as we have cookbooks that might mention it in english.
