It's the same thing as "lactose-free milk" vs. "almond milk". One is produced by a cow (and an extra enzyme to split the lactose), the other by draining California's water table.

Nah, you're wrong. Lactose free milk could come from a goat, a human, or even a coconut. You think milk means cow milk cause you forgot what milk means.

(Also what the fuck do you think cows make milk out of? Pixie dust and genie wishes? Nah. Cows make their milk out of California's water table and corn that grows from California's water table.)
