Yes! I was just telling someone at work that I find it hilarious that people always use Starbucks as the poster child for expensive drinks but I’m paying just as much at Dunkin cuz oat milk is an extra $1.50 at the store by my house.

My vegan friend educated me on the dairy and farming industry monopoly and it really opened my eyes, like why plant based milks can't actually be labelled 'milk' so that's why you see 'melk' 'plant-based beverage' 'creamy bevereage'.

I mean they're literally not milk, so I don't know why this would be weird. Lots of food items have specific legal requirements to be labeled a certain way.
