        Idk, I never figured out the bags. Poked one with a straw, but when i set it down to get a cookie, it just like spurted milk, like a mortally wounded animal bleeding out.

  Oat milk is also the best for the environment by an unironic country mile.

    Even better than soy? Soy is my favorite

      Just think about the difference in producing Soy and Producing Oats.

      Oats are cheaper, more widespread globally (farmed in most climates) around the world and require less water. Obviously it would be the better option.

      That’s not to say that Soy milk isn’t good. It’s just not as good

        My grandfather farmed both soy and oats, but I wasn’t aware there was a drastic difference between the water consumed. Now I know. Sucks because I really think soy has the best texture and flavor, but I’m not that picky

  I tried oat milk. While it tastes good, IMO it tastes nothing like milk. The closest description I could give for the taste being “cereal juice”

  It’s an interesting cooking ingredient though. Certainly has its own unique flavor. It’s also a nice refresher drink.

  My biggest gripe with oat milk is that it isn’t as “filling” as the alternatives. It’s a drink, not a food. So when I try to 1:1 use it as a substitute it can leave me feeling sick.

  TLDR: be mindful of the fact that it’s VERY different from milk, even if oat milk tastes good.

    I’d recommend not substituting 1:1. If you go easy on the oat milk to coffee ratio, you’ll have a better experience. IMHO, oat doesn’t alter the taste experience of coffee as much as the other stuff, which is my foremost reason for preferring it.

      Oh I like lots of it. To a point I make my coffee stronger than most people just to counter how much I dilute it using milk. Think like a 50% water 50% milk ratio. Sometimes 70/30 if I feel like having it stronger.

    That is why oat milk is perfect for cereal

  I love oat milk in my coffee. It’s got a good texture if that makes sense

  • SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Mouthfeel you mean?

    source

    • Sneptaur@pawb.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Listen I’m a trans woman so “mouth feel” has a specific connotation haha

    The way I’d describe it is that, compared to other milk alternatives, it is the has the most body.

    ie, think of it being closer to full-fat milk than to non-fat milk.

    Another one you might like is rice milk.

  Soy milk has actual soybeans in it though and therefore better nutritional value in most cases.

  • HardlightCereal@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    I already get enough soy nutrients because tofu is delicious

  I think almond is closest - but that’s shit for the environment, so oat it is

    Almond milk tastes like dirt.
