We have had re-use of words in food for ages now and it's not a particularly big problem.

If a consumer has an expectation that what they're eating and drinking are specific things, they would be well served by learning to read the label(s). Nobody is serving these things outside of niche restaurant experiences and calling them the exact same thing as their OG counterparts.

Why are you defending corporations who thrive on the for-profit deception of consumers?

It's a neat trick, wording-wise, to try and make it out like I'm doing that. It's fairly clear that I'm not doing that.

e.g, Almond _milk_ has been a thing for centuries now. Everyone knows it's not from a cow, yet we call it milk because the end product is similar enough that people get what the point is. Humanity will likely do this until the heat death of the universe. You should probably just get over it.

Yes, word tricks are the problem. They deceive.

		That's... not even a real response to my comment. If you're going to be this disingenuous then I'm not going to bother responding past this. shrug
