      To which authority? Because I know the milk conglomerate has been staunchly fighting for that very definition.

      The lack of consent is more viable as a disqualifier.

        I think the main distinction is lactose. And/or the proteins that are present in milk.

        While oat milk and consorts can be used in a lot of use cases it’s not a one to one replacement and it’s dishonest to claim it is.

          Depends on the uses. Food Theory did a great video about this very thing, covering preferred taste, consistency, price, protein / fat content, and bake-ability: https://youtu.be/df8FRfVtVNw

          Lactose is simply the kind of sugar/ starch in the milk.
