Yep, “science”...
Looks like with almond whipped cream they’re basically using coconut oil instead of dairy fat.
Have never liked milk— even as a kid.
BUT— add chocolate to it and I love it!!!
In my youth we would get milk straight from the farm.
It took many years to quit the habit of shaking the milk jug.
I was raised on a Wisconsin dairy farm.
I remember well how hard it could be to milk cows when the power went out.
I cannot even imagine how hard it is to milk an almond......
Marketing convinced a lot of folks that they were lactose intolerant and that’s the only reason that market exists.
I was a whole milk guy all of my life (2% in a pinch) but I developed some food allergies later in life. Unfortunately milk from a cow is one of the things I can no longer eat, including all other dairy products like butter and ice cream.
So I’ve gone to an almond and coconut “milk” blend. Is it as good? Nope...but it’s not bad either.
And it’s better than nothing.
One of the few things Arnold gets right
Tiny nipples...
Ran out of half-and-half at my sisters, but there did happen to be some whipping cream (not whipped) in the fridge. It is EVEN BETTER. Good grief, we were just swooning.
Leave it to Ron Swanson to understand food.
This is a ridiculous comparison.
Now if they were to compare Cow’s milk, goats milk and other livestock milks that people drink that would fine. However to compare anything with the word “milk” in the title is a non comparison. All processed foods and drinks are usually bad for you. I know how to make almond milk and I do not consider that processed food and is as healthy as a regular almond due to how the “milk” is extracted. What could be bad for you in almond “milk” is the water from he city with all the extra chemicals in it. If a fish dies in te water, then the water is bad. In most cities, you cannot expect a fish to live in city drinking water.
Nothing. Go black and you won’t go back.
By the way, a person with nut allergies may not be allergic to almonds as was in the case of my father. Give him a any other nut not an almond or a peanut, off to the ER we went. HE loved almond peanut butter and “milk” and had no allergic reaction to it. More for the fact after 60 years he could eat a nut other than a peanut.
My gramps drinks the stuff. How can you call all those other products milk? They’re not dairy.
Correct, but they also make coconut whipped cream.
Cow milk. Full fat. On Lucky Charms.
If the source doesn’t go moo it’s not milk.
We get 2 gallons of milk from the local dairy delivered every week. It is definitely the best I can buy. My adult kids acknowledge it is the best tasting/ freshest milk around but they all drink Oat Milk or Almond Milk (both are available from the milkman just not made at the dairy). I asked my daughter yesterday what the appeal was. She said they like the taste of it (Oat Milk). I gave it to my 3 year old grandson once by mistake and he said it “tasted like soap”.
