    Even if you don’t care about the ethics, plant milk is getting cheap (oat milk is cheaper than cows milk where i live), tastes good, has a longer shelf life and has thus far worked perfectly as a replacement in baking and such

      How do you get over the nutty aftertaste? Every milk derivative I have tried, always tasted really really bad compared to regular milk. Trust me, I want to go plant milk, but goodness the taste is awful for me.

        Which ones have you tried? Some soy milk has a pretty strong flavor, some doesn’t. Oat doesn’t have an aftertaste like that imo, or pea milk

          Of course almond milk, and that was the first one I tried. I hated that one because I don’t like almonds, so I didn’t want to give up there. When I tried oat milk, I liked it a little at first, but it started to have a play-doh taste like a day or two after opening it, and I did not buy another to see if it was a bad batch.

          Can you recommend some oat milk that will taste good, and not break the bank so to speak? :)

            NextMilk! My partner is a picky eater but miraculously will consume NextMilk with cereal. It also works great for baking and cooking. We’ve stopped buying cow milk completely.
