"Imitation foods" is ambiguous. Also (perhaps as a symptom of this) some of the inclusions and exclusions show a very northern American bias as well as a lack of historical information. For example, the "milk substitutes" subcategory includes foods consumed traditionally - not as a substitution for anything else but as a food in its own right - in other parts of the world for hundreds of years (e.g. soy milk, coconut milk) (and even for hundreds of years in the west, e.g. almond milk). If plant milks are to be included as "imitation foods" (and it looks quite biased and ignorant of international history to do so), so should peanut butter (because it's not dairy butter), coconut cream (not dairy cream) and probably even chicken drumsticks (because they're not used for beating drums). -- Philologia ( talk) 15:10, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
