Big Dairy got to you, huh.

There’s nothing wrong with referring to other kinds of milk as milk. If anything, cow’s milk should be clearly labeled as such, if we’re following the approach of identifying ingredients properly.

Common sense did, not Big Dairy.

There very much is. For most people, if they go to a shop and ask for milk and get handed goat milk, they will get annoyed. Similarly if they ask for eggs and get handed duck eggs or quail eggs. I don't know why common sense is so lacking on this forum but this is not my opinion, this is a fact.

But yeah, if someone disagrees with you they're just Big Dairy shill. There's no other way a rational person could disagree with another.
