i had oat butter a while back, and suddenly I understood why all the dairy conglomerates are lobbying hard about the legal names
Where do they sell oat butter? I need to try that
seen it in Seattle
haven’t seen it outside of there yet
Typical lol
My hometown
Oat butter is a thing that exists? That’s wild.
There’s a silly, change-resistant part of me that feels instinctive outrage at this notion. Mostly I’m just curious. I wonder how it’s made. Can you start with oat milk and make oat butter? Because it blew my mind when I accidentally whipped double cream so much that it started turning into butter.
To be fair to that barista, the translation of “oat milk” in French (“lait d’avoine”) isn’t obvious if you don’t already know the word. Also keep in mind that the letter H is (almost) silent in french, so he probably thought that client just had a weird accent when they kept asking for “hawt milk”
Small shops getting pissy about alt milks is my fav bait.
I bring oat milk in a pocket flask whenever I go to the local coffee shop for dates, which gets some looks, but needs must
It only counts if you pour the oat milk super slow while maintaining unflinching eye contact with the staff.
There’s no freaking way a barista at an airport doesn’t know vegetable milks exist. It might happen but damn that’s rare nowadays. It takes them nothing to have some vegetable milk on the side, it lasts more so it’s not like they might run into supply issues. Weird.
I’ve seen this image years ago. I don’t know how old it was already at that point.
I think this might be a meme about how the french don’t like anything that goes against their national values, which heavily relies on eating “proper” food, i.e. no oak milk garbage … but i could be wrong here.
like how they refuse to speak any language but french
Do Americans make this stuff up and really think Europeans don’t know what Ost milk is. Bitch please
I think this can only come from language barrier, oat milk in french is “lait d’avoine” which doesn’t sound similar at all.

Yeah but folks know “milk”, even if their english is shit, “oat” not so much.
In Sweden all the milk is ost milk.
Not just soy milk?
Soy milk is illegal. You can have soy drink instead.
Are there no lactose intolerant Europeans?
There are, as well as vegans, we all know about milk alternatives.
As a lactose intolerant Australian, I just buy lactose-free normal milk.
I’m pissed at that the word barista exists. In Spanish we have one word and we don’t care if you are serving food at tables, beers behind the bar or coffees behind of another bar similar to the previous one.
We do have the word barista in spanish.
It’s not exactly the same as camarero, it’s more focused on the coffee part. Same as we also have the word barman, which differs from camarero in that it normally refers to people who mix drinks and cocktails behind the bar.
Sure we do, now from American influence. Try to find it in a dictionary from 10-15 years ago.
For barman, when was the last time you used it in a conversation? I’ve only heard it used by tourists.
Aurghex!
J’en ai marre!
OUI ONLY AAVE NORMALE MILK, MADAME.
How peuple dare not speaking a foreign language perfectly ?
Lo siento, yo no parle vough fances
The phrase “lingua franca” exists as a testament to just how willing and able everyone was to learn French for international communication, and I feel like it’s not a huge ask for them to return the favor. It’s an airport.
It’s actually not mostly based on French but a bunch of language see Wikipedia
I never liked milk much (always tasted cheesy to me, except the raw stuff, that tastes like hay), then I became lactose intolerant. Most alt milks taste better to me, and oat milk is just better in coffee. Say what you will about America but at least I can get oat milk with my decaf at any real coffee shop. Some gas stations have milk alternatives too, but it’s not as common.
Oat milk isn’t rare outside the US. It’s a bit harder to get in French coffee shops, but not that much.
This is just France being French. Especially because Toulouse is a small regional airport.
Luckily the EU protected us from associating fake milk with the real good animal milk. He probably was confused because she didn’t ask oat ‘barista’ or ‘drink’ /s
Gutted to learn I agree with the French on something.
