1. Are vegetable drinks and vegetable milk the same product?
Vegetable beverages are very often referred to as vegetable milk, but is this the correct term? No. There is no such term, so its use in the sale of goods is considered to be contrary to European Union law. Food law says that milk is a product that is obtained from the stomach of at least one cow and the term m is used exclusively for cow's milk. If milk comes from another animal, it should be included in the name, e.g. goat milk, cow milk. Other products that are milk-based are so-called dairy products.2. Vegetable beverages of all kinds
Vegetable beverages are increasing in popularity year after year, and there are many varieties available on the market today. They can be made from grains, such as rice, oats, corn or orchid. They may also be based on strawberries, the most famous being soybean. Almond, coconut or pistachio beverage are made from nuts and peas.3. Vegetable drinks to choose from
Given the wide availability of plant-based beverages, their choice is quite challenging. Any consumer may be at a disadvantage which beverage to choose and what to pay attention to. First of all, its composition. It should be as short as possible and it should be worth reaching for products without added sugar. The best solution would be a drink with only water and raw materials. However, the accessibility of products with such a good composition is very low, so vegetable drinks with added sunflower oil, salt or natural flavourings will also be a choice. Below are the composition of two different almond drinks available on the market.4. Vegetable beverages nutritional value
Vegetable beverages can vary significantly in composition. Of all, soybean beverage has the highest nutritional value. It is particularly high in protein content, which is comparable to that found in cow's milk. Very often in one glass of this drink the amount of protein exceeds 7 g. For comparison, in a glass of oat soybeans this amount does not exceed 2 g. Drinks differ not only in their composition but also in their flavor.5. Soya beverage unsweetened, enriched
