Yes, we know almond milk in non-dairy, We don't need a law

This milk battle has been going on forever. For the most part, common sense (for once) has won out. The dairy industry, an unbelievably crony industry, with bizarre regional rules that are tied together at the federal level, that increasingly is on the ropes because it turns out that milk is not the miracle elixir we were once told it was, wants to keep almond milk, coconut milk, other non-dairy products with “milk” in their names from using the word “milk”.

The dairy industry insists that consumers are confused. It wants a law.

(From Reason)

The DAIRY PRIDE Act, which was reintroduced in March after a first attempt in 2021, would prevent plant-based products from using terms often associated with dairy in their branding. So, should the bill pass, phrases like "oat milk," "soy yogurt," and "plant-based cheese" will be off-limits, forcing manufacturers to resort to awkward phrases like "oat beverage" when labeling their products.

The bill was reintroduced in reaction to a February decision from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to allow manufacturers of most plant-based dairy alternatives to continue labeling their products as "milk." The decision, according to the FDA's draft guidance, was made because the agency found that consumers consistently understood that plant-based milks aren't dairy products.
