Labeling Plant-Based Beverages Differently Than Milk

The speaker emphasizes the importance of enforcing FDA regulations to avoid confusion between dairy and plant-based beverages. They highlight that plant-based alternatives may not offer the same nutritional value as dairy products, especially for children in need of specific nutrients like calcium. The speaker suggests labeling these plant-based beverages differently to avoid implying nutritional equivalence. They draw a comparison between almond milk and juice, indicating that just because a product looks like milk doesn't mean it has the same nutritional properties. The speaker does not advocate for banning almond beverages but supports labeling them differently to reflect their content accurately.
