Shouldnt it be called Nut juice or Seed juice? permalinksavereportparentreply[ +- ]agoseris@lemm.ee14 points1 year agoYou’ll have to ask the people who started calling them milks hundreds of years ago. permalinksavereportparentreply[ +- ]Nachorella@lemmy.sdf.org5 points1 year agoThey have a lot more in common with dairy milk than they do juice. And they’re also commonly used as dairy milk alternatives. Plant milk is a much better descriptor even if juice might be more “accurate”. permalinksavereportparentreply[ +- ]queermunist she/her@lemmy.ml4 points1 year agoI do it to piss off dairy farmers specifically. They hate it that I get to call it plant milk and that’s really funny to me. permalinksavereportparentreply
