I haven’t seen any mentions of soy milk in this thread. I have it unsweetened with some fruit Müsli and even in coffee/tea and I’m good to go

[–] FrederikNJS@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

My personal opinion is that soy milk tastes like grass... I've tried it in coffee, alone, on cereal, but I just can't avoid feeling like someone dumped a handful of freshly cut grass in...

Almond is pretty good on it's own, but in coffee it tastes like marzipan... It's not bad, but not the taste I want in my coffee.

Oat is what tastes most like cow's milk to me.

I second oat milk. Not watery like soy or almond milk. The other problem with almond milk is the insane amount of water that it takes to grow almonds.

Huh, yeah, it totally does taste like grass. Kinda.

I still drink it tho 💪

I'm partial to oat milk myself. Vanilla unsweetened is refreshing.

Also it's way thicker than oat and almond milk.

And contains more protein. Generally I'd say the best option, no clue why people are so hung up on oat specifically.

[–] Dkarma@lemmy.world -2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Sorry that's false. Less protein than cows milk.

[–] Applejuicy@feddit.nl 3 points 2 years ago

It should be abundantly clear that the comparison was with oat milk...

[–] gramie@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I find that soy milk tastes thinner and more watery than oat milk.

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What funny soy milk are you drinking? It tastes distinct, for sure, rather than being sweetish like oat or almond milk. But in terms of viscosity soy milk has them beat.

[–] gramie@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

I don't know, whatever soy milk Costco sells in Canada.
