one of the most interesting things i saw in america was an attack ad on almond milk by the dairy lobby

not like a specific brand or anything, just the concept of almond milk

i wonder why you don't see that in the uk? is it some legal thing or just politeness

@envgen I would imagine the British dairy industry lacks the size and unification plus their main competition is imported dairy products, alternative milks are a fly compared to that. Battles are also won and lost in your major supermarket chains and the shelving realestate they offer rather than in messy smears. But there also could be a legal precedent.
