[QUOTE="PSQ, post: 6515299, member: 11374"] This is something I posted on another thread about manufacturers appropriating the term 'milk' to sell fake industrial 'knock offs' to gullible consumers following foodie fads. Why are the Advertising Standards Authority, Food Standards Commission and NFU not shouting about this from the rooftops FFS?: [B]From the Alpro Oat 'milk' website: INGREDIENTS Water, OAT (10%), Chicory root fibre, Sunflower oil, Calcium (Tri-calcium phosphate), Sea salt, Stabiliser (Gellan gum), Vitamins (Riboflavin (B2), B12, D2) So it's somehow allowed to be called Milk, when in reality it's an emulsion of water, oat flour, fibre, vegetable oil and salt. The next 2 are interesting as Gellan gum should be labelled as E418, and tri-calcium phosphate which should really be labelled as E341 but that doesn't sound very 'vegany' does it, so perhaps Alpro [I]forgot[/I] :poop: (n) Mmm!, all the fake dairy goodness of a product every bit as synthetic and 'corporate' as Coca Cola. But what do I care, it's all great for the oat market :D[/B] [/QUOTE]
