That's VEGAN butter, Not BUTTER. Its only been the past 10-20 years where food products started trying to be things they aren't. Be more like mardrine and say I can't believe it's not butter
Non-animal foods have been around a long time, even commercially, even in North America.
Henry Ford (yes, that Ford) had a soy milk factory in the 1930s, and J. H, Kellog (yes, that Kellog) sold Protose before that.
If we're looking at the whole word, tofu's been around for over 2000 years, seitan has been around for about 1500 years.
Edit: Forgot about Loma Linda foods. They've also been around for over 100 years in North America
To add to this, recipes for plant-milk (almond specifically) can be found dating back to the 13th century. n3m37h is just willfully historically illiterate and hilariously reactionary.
lmao okay boomer (margarine* btw)
Wrong like you are about a lot of shit

And I don't use fake butter, coconut oil and butter are where it's at
Wrong about what? It's objectively not spelled "mardrine", and boomerism is being used here colloquially as an attitude, not a generation.
Thanks for butting in, your reply is adding lots to this conversation that doesn't involve you.
And thanks for reiterating what has already been stated. Very helpful
Almond milk has been around since at least the 13th century. Do you take issue with almond milk calling itself "milk", and if so, do you need a refresher on arithmetic?
