In principle, the term “milk” may not be suitable to describe these beverages because milk should be produced from mammary glands in animals as stated in the European Union law. Therefore, in European countries, plant-based beverages that imitate milk are only allowed to be described as plant drinks (e.g. oat drinks and soy drinks instead of oat milk and soy milk respectively). However, most people, especially non-vegetarian, would feel comfortable with the name “plant milk” because of similarity in appearance so many plant drinks in the market are commercialized as plant “milks”.
