This is so fucking stupid. Yeah, people are just too dumb to understand that soy milk and almond milk contain no dairy. Are you gonna rename peanut butter? There’s no more pressing issue than renaming shit. These people need to be hit in the head.
Several EU countries with strong agriculture lobbies have laws like this on the books, and that usually leads to peanut butter being renamed peanut spread or peanut pulp.
What’s funny is that Chinese is such an efficient language that the hot topic English naming debates aren’t nearly as present since whoever named these things are as direct as possible.

This hurts my head.
Well, it should. It’s such nonsensical, pandering bs.
Call me a reactionary all you want, but I’ll die before calling it “peanut pulp”. That just sounds like agriculture waste.

Peanut butter = 花生酱 = peanut paste
Soy milk = 豆浆 = soy starch
What else am I supposed to call what’s in my peanut juice?
Deez nuts.
Does it result in higher butter sales? Or are they wasting their lobbying bucks making things worse to the benefit of literally nobody?
It sure doesn’t stop people from going vegan, i think this is entirely performative and doesn’t do anything of actual material value.
End genocide?
Best I can do is insult the LGBTQ community and consumers who look past the 100% vegan, NON-DAIRY bragging marks on packages of nut juice.
I think almond milk has been termed as such since basically it’s first use
I mean, the only other thing you could call it is “almond juice”, but even thinking that phrase is enough to make me vomit in my mouth.
