    Yeah, also milk, there’s no replacement yet. When I read almonds/oats milk, I got to puke. How can anyone believe it tastes like milk, let alone taste good? Do they not notice that very bitter and awful taste it cointains or do they put extra double sugar into it to make it taste? Some people really have some strong self hypnosis going on or lack taste buds.

    I gave them a chance, whole headedly and was so super disappointed on the taste, I thought people were trolling me.

      I guess I’ll keep the trolling going then, because I’ve been switched to plant milk for a couple years—mostly oat, but I’ll mix in some soy for protein, or coconut because yum. I don’t drink it straight, it’s mostly for cereal. I usually have a regular and a vanilla because each is good with different cereals. If you want the closest to “real” milk, about 80% (regular) oat and 20% coconut I think is pretty close. Silk makes what they call “One” milk that’s pretty much that, but I like to experiment with the ratio myself. 😄

      Regular milk tastes… weird now. Slightly acidic almost? I can also feel that my gut doesn’t like trying to digest it. (Almost like milk is supposed to be for infants, who’d’ve thunk? 😅)

      Almond milk though… BLECK. I can’t stand it. Often watery, acidy, weird aftertaste, just like you said.
