    Because words have common meanings. You can’t say “contains milk” and have that be almond. There needs to be definitions of what is what.

      I am thinking of several words to describe you and your elitist attitude that gives you the right to dictate to the rest of us what we can and can not do. Would you care to guess a few of them?

        You are exactly the kind of people that buy “alkaline water” and then get mad when “alkaline” turns out to mean “causes liver damage” instead of “magic”.

        No one wants to stop you from poisoning yourself, the rest of us would simply like for “not full of poison” to be a meaningful label on our food.
