    Maybe it’s commentary on how food products in the US are becoming more and more artificial so that milk is now just water with food coloring. /s

      I’m pretty sure you’re not allowed to call it cheese in the US either. It gets labelled as “cheese product”.

        Isn’t that just for stuff like “American cheese”? Aka processed cheese.

        That wouldn’t apply to something like a cheddar, mozzarella, provalone, Gouda, feta, Swiss, etc.

          Proper American cheese is called “Pasteurized Process American Cheese”

          Once non-dairy oil starts being used it loses the ability to be called American Cheese and you start seeing “American Slices” on the label.

      I’ve never seen a purple cow;
      I hope to never see one.
      But from the milk I’m drinking now,
      I’m sure that there must be one.

    Howdy! Midwest guy here. I speak for all Midwesterners (yeah all of them, shut up Kyle) and I can tell you Cow’s Milk is dairy. Now if you want to drink almond, or oat, or rice juice that’s fine as well.

    But dairy products are made from millk and milk is not classically thought as a product made from millk (even if it actually is)?

      Hey, man. Dairy products come from cows, but that don’t make them beef. #Sarcasm

      But probably the logic at play here.
