Theorists, I've already talked about the good and bad of dairy based milk on this channel... twice. So, for our vegetarian, vegan or lactose intolerant friends, I wanted to take a deep dive into alternative milks. From soy and oat, to pea and cashew, which alternative milk makes the BEST milk? Let's find out!

Another category I would have liked to have seen is how long each milk lasts before it spoils, both refrigerated and non-refrigerated. Milk alternatives might not be as econimic as dairy milk at the time of purchase, but if you're someone who doesnt actually use milk all that often, maybe having it last longer is better in the long run.

This entirely. Oat milk requires the least amount of water to produce out of all the alternative milks. And if you live in an area that grows grain, it's very local and requires minimal transportation. The flavour, as seen in this video and in my opinion, is the most universally usable. I drink dairy alternatives by choice, and I don't go out of my way to convince others, but I hear the same story: "they all taste awful" I suggest oat milk and they come back saying it's great. I find it's the easiest one for dairy drinkers to transition to. Plus in my area, the oat milk is the same price as all the other alternatives.

As someone on an intermittent fasting diet, and can't eat until noon; and didn't eat breakfast as a teenager; I doubt it. Actually that was one of the things that came up when I was looking at starting interment fasting. From a weight loss perspective, it doesn't seem to matter when you eat your food, either as one or two big meals or six small meals throughout the day, only matters how much you're eating throughout the day. However, there are some advantages of restricting the time window of when you can eat. It improves insulin sensitivity, which can help decrease your risk of type 2 diabetes. You're also training your body not to eat during certain times so your body stops producing those hunger hormones when you are fast. Granted it does take about a month for your body to adjust, and it can be difficult those first few weeks.

Yeah. Milk says "once opened, consume within 3 days". There's no way the four of us can consume such a big bottle that fast. We probably could if we drank it rather than just using it in our cereal and on our tea, but we don't. Meanwhile, Oatly milk says "once opened, consume within 5 days." Way longer. Plus, before you open it, Oatly milk can last months.

Here's an interesting piece of information I know. "Raw milk", that is unprocessed milk straight from the animal, don't cause discomfort for lactose intolerant people. If you're lactose intolerant, you can drink it no problem. The reason the milk you buy in stores is problematic has to do with the pasteurization process.

@@ferretzim8694 That is absolutely false. It is a bogus claim made by companies that sell raw milk and various "natural medicine" sites, but is demonstrably false. Studies by both the FDA and Stanford University of Medicine have found that there is literally no difference between raw milk and pasteurized milk when it comes to the impact they have on people with lactose intolerance, as they contain the same amount of lactose and the bacteria present in the raw milk do not aid in breaking it down in any meaningful way. At best, the claims made by raw milk sellers are backed by anecdotal claims by customers that either believed themselves to be lactose intolerant even though they aren't, or people that are lactose intolerant but are experiencing a placebo effect due to the claims made by the raw milk sellers. Please stop spreading misinformation. It can legitimately cause harm.

Very interesting question but it's hard to find where to even start with this. As someone said below, farms need lots of water and pesticides. But at the same time, cows do need feed and that also affects the environment. Then there's the debate whether it's better to farm food or raise animals and exploit them, whether farming is good because of how it'll affect the land and air, etc. Really interesting topic.

@@walter3934 cows are able to live their entire life on pastures eating grass and while it’s not always feasible to keep them on pasture year round especially in colder climates it still offsets feed requirements but beyond that cattle and other ruminant mammals can extract energy from farming waste we can’t eat such as plant stalks or fruits/veggies that didn’t make it past quality control due to pest damage or other things. The important thing to note here is that half the land in America isn’t suitable for sustainably farming crops but has no issues growing grass which you can then just cut and put in storage bunkers where it’s turned into silage which can make up the bulk of what cattle eat. That’s what a lot of dairy farmers do already. Factory farming of animals is obviously worse for the animal but it’s hard to say if it’s significantly worse for the environment as yes now you require more feed to support your operation but you take up significantly less space and you get other offsets like tones of manure which can be used as a natural fertilizer or to produce energy. Personally I think that even if it ends up being better for the environment factory farming has moral issues that can’t be overcome chief among them being the animal deserves a decent life without the excessive suffering that comes with being locked up in a pen for its entire life. There really isn’t an easy answer here as for what’s best for humans or the planet and no matter your views on eating meat short of foraging for berries it’s impossible to eat without the death of millions of animals be it cattle on ranches or rodents and birds killed by plows and pesticides.

my niece is lactose intolerance, so I've been experiencing with cooking and baking with different milks, and let me tell you there is more then just minor differences. texture, density, bake time, flavor changes. it all makes a huge difference. I don't like cooking with almond milk as the almond flavor will come through real strong. oat is great for baking cookies and cakes. coconut milk is fun for coconut flavored things, but using it as a stock for soups and curry is the way to go. if you want to make Alfredo sauce, I found the best is to use the Lactose free milk. it's real milk just the Lactae removed and it works so good for Mac n cheese and Alfredo. pair it with vegan parm and you are set

I have noticed rice milk produces very similar texture but a lighter sweeter taste so if you like that I reccomend it especially in baking. same with rice flour. my friend is gluten free and the biggest difference between regular flour and brown rice flouur is it's grainier and holds moisture better so the combination of it with rice or regular milk makes really good cakes

Add that to the over stress it puts on the bee population and you've got even bigger issues. Soy is also a massive water hog, and both take more acreage than any dairy farm every thought of needing.

And NO not lactose intolerant... allergic, as in my tongue and throat burns, my lips get puffy and I have some difficulty breathing.

13:26 as someone who works in the agronomy industry, I can also tell you that soy milk is going to be cheap because a lot of soy is produced. I mean a lot of soy. Not only does soy have a lot of applications, it's also a good companion crop to re- enrich the soil for growing corn so you have a lot of farmers alternating between soybeans and corn. We end up making a lot more soy than the market would really call for as part of corn production which has a ton of applications. Remember soy and corn are used for things other than food. With corn, you have ethanol. With soy, you have biodiesel. Also a ton of animal feed and silage is made from soy So yeah, soybeans are easy to grow, grown in abundance and really maximized through bioscience so it does not surprise me at all that soy milk is cheap.

When my lactose intolerance got so bad that I had to cut out dairy milk (until lactose free dairy milk came along), I tried all the alternative milks to work out which was the best - but, being British, my test was based on which mixed best in a cup of tea. To which, soya milk ran away with the prize; it was the only alternative milk to mix well in tea at all! All the other alternative milks broke down and became powdery. So, OK, I wasn't mad about the taste of soya milk, but it did what I wanted the best and I got used to the taste so it *is* the best alternative milk, to go in a cup of tea, at least.

Dairy farmers have been failing as he said so while almond milk takes more water than other alternatives it is nowhere near the amount of water animal milk uses. The cows need to drink water we all know that but one overlooked factor is the plants the animal is eating. If your dairy cows are grass fed which less than 5% are than this would still be an issue since it’s more convenient to grow your own grass as a farmer than pick up surrounding grass. Don’t take my word on that 5% but I’m talking about dairy cows I know cows raised for meat alone have 10% be grass fed.

For price, milk likely has a foot up because a LOT of grocery stores will sell milk for a loss to bring customers in to shop. Milk wars have occurred, where places like Wal-mart will drop their milk prices to bring in customers. A lot of people will shop where milk is cheapest, especially during the school season where lots of cereal is eaten. Milk alternatives are seldom, if ever, sold at a loss. Next time you walk into wal-mart, ask the dairy clerk to scan a jug of milk and see how much of a loss that jug is selling for. I htink it was somewhere around 30% when I last worked there. This is also why convenient stores sell milk for almost double the price, but alternatives are around the same price. They can not afford the several dollars loss on the sale.

I’ve been experimenting with different milks and what I’ve found is that soy milk is the best for coffee drinks, coconut milk makes the best ice cream, almond milk is good as its own drink but the flavor is just too strong to work as a milk substitute. The best milk for cereal and to have just a glass of is lactose free milk. I haven’t found a cheese I like yet and there are other combinations of things I have yet to try, this is just what I’ve found works best for me so far :)

At the end of the day eating plants with animal based protein is the best option. Animal based protein helps complete the protein of plants and plants have quite a lot of protein. So having cows milk in your porridge makes the oats itself higher in protein essentially. Same with chicken. Chicken and Milk are probably the healthiest animal foods and red meat like beef should be kept in moderation.

Since when was rigorous testing a BAD thing? Literally everyone wants to know what their consuming if they care and if the people voting don't want to know what their actually consuming on a day to day basis then I simply don't think they have a place to vote. That doesn't even really make much sense as to want to vote for someone who will straight up lie to you, that and the fact that the people putting them on the shelves aren't even the ones testing these products for proof.

I switched from dairy to oat milk because dairy would always go bad before I can use it. Oat, on the other hand, will last in the fridge for almost double the amount of time as dairy.
