I live in Bavaria. There are multiple politicians who don’t get tired to performatively eat sausages and try to make laws that mandate calling oat milk “oat drink” and vegan burgers/schnitzel/… anything else. As if anyone would ever get confused by that. There’s a common joke that they should rename “scouring milk” to “scouring drink” otherwise people get confused!!!
The milk thing though. If it didn’t come from a mammal it isn’t milk, it’s a milk substitute. But milk of magnesia is another traditional thing which isn’t milk

By that logic it should be “peanut butter substitute” as well
Word meaning depends on usage. People call it “oat milk”, so it’s oat milk.
