Finnish food legislation prohibits calling a drink milk if part or all of the lactose has been removed from it.

Basically lactose free milk. Reason why it’s called maitojuoma and not maito is just technical details.

A milk drink refers to milk from which some characteristic part has been removed or standardized, such as lactose removed or the amount of protein standardized. Only the standardization of milk fat is allowed so that the milk can still be called milk (e.g. skimmed, light and whole milk). However, addition is allowed (e.g. milks to which protein or vitamins have been added) and lactose digestion is also allowed (low-lactose milks).

Been drinking it for last half decade. Stomach likes it better. Adult especially doesn’t really need any dairy, so i kind of don’t care what it is. You get used to it in coffee, also since it’s bit of sweet side i don’t need sugar in coffee.

No. There is no such thing as milk in the stores.
Milk is something that comes out of mammary glands.
All these white substances are modified somehow.
Like water. If you take anything off water, it’s not water anymore. If you add anything to water it’s not water anymore.

It is a milk which has a fixed protein content.
It’s lactose-free milk.
