Is there much consumer confusion here? Are people buying oat drink "dairy alternative" and thinking they can use it 1-to-1 in place of milk?

This feels like a silly way to go about it, especially as we should be lowering our consumption of these animal products.

I do not know if these products are better for the environment, so in general I just avoid the category. Except for cheese, can't not have cheese.

Judging from what I've read in online discussions... Absolutely. This is especially a problem for children, I'm pretty happy I wasn't fed oat "milk" as a child.

Imagine the unfortunate child who's been fed peanut butter to only find out it wasn't really butter.

Why?

One of the dairy industry lobbying arms is trying to convince us it's dangerous (e.g. with https://youtu.be/oLjEG8Qu1Qw) but it's bullshit.

Hopefully you were fed human milk. Are you suggesting children are being fed oat milk instead? I don't think you can buy human milk from shops yet so I don't see how this would help with that particular confusion.

"real food"???

You mean people can't read the label to check what they are actually buying?
