Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!"

It's called oat milk because English has called any white liquid milk longer than we've had the notion that milk only comes from mammals. In some recipes from the 12th century dairy milk is actually the poor man's substitute for almond milk.
I'm confused about your obsession with the oil content. Do you only use skim or non-fat milk?
Most people like some fat in their milk because it makes it have a better mouth feel and to be less watery. But, as you mentioned, your tastes are different from other people's and you sometimes don't like things that other people do, so it's fine if you don't like fatty milk.
It never occurred to you that people buy and consume a beverage because they like it? What an interesting world you live in.
You don't say. What wonders will they think of next.
Nonsense. It's called oat milk because it sells better if people think of it as a milk substitute. "Tasty Oat Drink" just doesn't have the same appeal.
I'm "obsessed" with the oil content because most people sipping oat milk lattes think that it's the nectar lovingly squeezed from plump little oats by italian virgins while sunning themselves by the seaside.
It never occurred to me that anyone would enjoy drinking tasty oat drink.
Sorry it's just that your earlier witty retort seemed based on a misconception regarding this particular nuance of beverage preparation. My bad.
Anyhow, feel free to have the last word in this tawdry little tete-a-tete but for my own part I think I'll leave you to appreciate your oil based milk substitute.
Wow. You went from silly to an absolute abrasive prick in no time. Have a day, fuckwad.
