More Aldi shout-outs! Can I get a woo?1 -
I call it cold nut press and coconaid. Feels more like an unexpected treat that way2

Edited. Wasn't aware I couldn't mention a grocery store? Is that really a rule?2 -

Well that’s most likely the fancy organic version.1 -

For me it was a woo of excitement0 -
This had me laughing. In one native dialect we call all milk the root word for breast/source + animal/plant.
1. Human milk translated, milk from breast/source of his/her mother.
2. Coconut (nuts, seeds or grain) milk translated, milk from flesh of coconut.
3. Cow/goat/camel translated, milk from cow, goat, camel breast.
Terms for water and milk are different as they aren't from the same source. Eg. A nursing mum produces 2 forms of liquid (void and breast milk) ... Terms aren't interchangeable. Coconut water isn't coconut milk. Almond milk is extracted in much the same process as coconut milk.

I was so excited I had to have some nut juice. Or almond milk, if you will.0 -
My teenage son is not a fan of all the dairy alternatives I keep buying and putting in the fridge. I made my own blend one day with several types of nuts, and offered him a taste. He was not amused. So I put it in a jug in the fridge and wrote NUT JUICE in big letters on it. He was still not amused.2

How can that not amuse a teenage boy? I would be extremely amused to see that in the fridge and i am an old lady.0 -

What made me do a double take though was "Product of USA" on the label. Like where are we stashing camels at in this country? Probably in some huge tent somewhere in Ohio. Poor babies.3 -

And they've probably run out of fresh camels by now so it's more than likely inbred camel milk.0
