Is it fair for restaurants to charge extra if you ask for plant milk instead of milk from Elsie?
Both my wife and kid are allergic to milk, and every time I have to order a plant-based milk somewhere for an extra charge, I am reminded of how disabilities get taxed extra in this country. Charging extra for allergy substitutions is so common we forget how discriminatory it really is.
, and the number goes up sharply when talking about Black or Asian populations. I suppose it should be hardly surprising that an extra charge at American mainstream businesses would mostly affect people of color at this point, but there it is. If you’re a person of color who wants milk in their coffee, the odds are at least even someone is going to charge you more to avoid gastric distress than they would a white person.
. This is despite the fact that soy, oat, and almond milk demand has only grown. Consumers who require non-dairy options are literally paying both the federal government and private companies to treat them as a nuisance. That said, it’s like putting a tollbooth on a wheelchair ramp because they cost more to make than steps. Sure, it’s logical from a purely economic standpoint, but it’s still making people with medical conditions shoulder all the extra costs.
