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
Thanks for the encouragement! My main thing is I have celiac and severe lactose intolerance. I can drink that lactose free milk, but I prefer to drink plant milks. The one I’ve tried to avoid is almond milk, after my discord buddy explained how wasteful it is to produce them.

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

Don’t worry too hard about it. Even partial reduction is great. Personally I’m just a vegetarian.
Everyone does their part somehow. Don’t let purists discourage you from reducing to the level YOU are comfortable at
