Funny, for me it’s the other way around, i have a mild soy allergy. (I get a sore throat and what feels like rashes, but on the inside.)
Average boy who eats soy

Then you take it black, like my heart.
But black coffee and espresso are two completely different things. Are you suggesting instead they get an Americano?
No, you can easily take espresso-based beverages “black”, too. Or rather, you can easily make them not-black by adding milk, which is pretty common for americanos.
Sure, but then you’re taking it in small cup form rather than as a larger volume drink. That still makes them two very different things.
If I want a nice, large margarita, telling me I can have a couple shots of tequila misses the point. Nothing against tequila, but a mixed drink and a shot are different enough that one is not a substitute for another.
Same with espresso. Americano is much closer in form factor to a latte than straight espresso. And more to my post’s point, most times when people say black coffee they mean drip.
Filter coffee. Only way to have it.
I’ll go as far as Turkish coffee, but Americano doesn’t taste good at all.
I don’t understand why you’d drink a soy caffè latte, because I don’t understand why you’d drink a caffè latte, because I don’t understand why you’d drink any type of coffee.
this post offends me, but at the same time, good point lmao
Same bro. Same.
Oat milk is superior than any other option for coffee drinks and I will die on this hill
Oat milk is good, but I can’t figure out how to make it foam up really nicely like cow’s milk when making a latte ): that’s about the only time I drink milk nowadays, so the lactaid is right next to the machine.
“Barista” oat milk has been common for like a decade. How have you both never seen it and never found out about it?
I got my espresso machine last week 😅 I spend a good amount of time researching the pros and cons of the machine itself and the details of how to do the whole “make espresso” thing, but I am quite new to all of this.
Get an “extra creamy” oat milk. Some brands even make a barista blend. The extra fat helps to form a fine and stable foam
Saw this yesterday, but I forgot to say thanks for the recommendation!
Unfortunately I can’t check that, because oats cause my intestines to go postal
Oof. Sorry to hear
They recently switched to oat milk in our office and it’s just nasty to me. I tried to like it but no I just can’t do it.
It depends on the brands I guess. but if you drink it like that and with coffee, its not amazing.
But mixed with cereals, cocoa it’s really good.
There a brand in France that makes a vegetal milk with, macadamia, hazelnut, and almond. It’s truly delicious.
I’ve started drinking milk alternative because I would get belly ache when drinking cold milk. And I saw the episode on kurzgesagt about milk. Where they say it’s better for the environment.
In the end I’m still eating regular dary like cheese and yogurt.
I get that, some brands don’t taste good at all. Weirdly enough, I really like the great value stuff. Planet oat or whatever’s decent too
I also enjoy the occasional oatmilk latte but recently was reading something about how oats have all sorts of pesticides that can make their way into the milk
Is there an agricultural product that you eat that does not contain pesticides in some quantity?
Probably not but something like oatmilk could be consumed daily which i guess is where the problem comes in
So you eat nothing else but animal products daily…? What you read reeks of fear-mongering with a good dose of “don’t think about it” thrown in, which clearly worked on you.
As compared to onions, garlic, potatoes, bread, cereals, or fruit? I’d put adding 4 oz of oatmilk pretty low on our pesticide exposure list.
Shoot, you should look up how American garlic’s been produced for the past few decades. It’s really disturbing and likely introducing pharmaceuticals back into human foods.
And dairy cows are shot up with antibiotics and hormones. Gotta pick your poison.
yeah thats true, best bet is to research the brands of oatmilk you get to see if they are better or worse
I don’t know if it’s the same outside Europe, but you could get certified organic
I learned that we should not tolerate intolerance!
Real milk contains mammal estrogen instead of just the plant kind.
Live and let live.

“And can I get that with some of the sweet bean juice, please?”

Btw, is there a evolutionary cost to creating lactase? Because, why do we stop with it usually and only keep it if it has huge advantages?
I would guess that humans have been around for what, 250k years? And that the vast majority of that didn’t involve a whole lot of milk after age 4.
So it wouldn’t have been to much advantage to be able to metabolize lactose.
No, there is, you get more from your cattle, and on a individual level, less likely to starve.
Keeping Lactase happened at least twice; north europe and a group in west africa.
Saudi Arabia too. I assume that camel milk came in pretty handy in early tribes surviving the deserts.
Sure, if you a) keep mammals around and b) drink their milk. I’m not convinced domesticated animals have been a thing for all that long, evolutionarily. Long enough for some groups to have adapted, sure. We have adaptations for cooked food, too.
[Searches] Cattle probably around 10k years ago.
Yes. It costs calories and nutrients.
But why then creating lactose in milk at all? Fat alone doesn’t suffice?
It’s easy to break down into glucose, which is important for bodily functions. Gluconeogenesis is a thing, but it is inefficient.
for real though, drinking milk is gross. where do you draw the line? what other bodily fluids are you guzzling at home?
Real milk is also the product of vast, unsustainable torture complexes.
I put soy milk in my coffee so I can pretend I’m becoming a girl because of the (phyto)estrogen.
There is actual estrogen in milk from other mammals
Completely wild to shit on soy milk in coffee.
Like, if you’re trying to be toxic about your coffee, how do you even justify diluting the coffee with milk in the first place? Can’t even do toxicity properly, get real
Since plant based milks are just basically water with the plant stuff in it, can’t we make coffee milk and put that in our coffee as a milk alternative?
My sibling in Christ, that’s just coffee
No, coffee is burnt coffee milk. We need actual raw coffee milk.
Look if somehow I can get a latte made with coffee milk … I need this.
I do barley coffee with oat milk called “not milk”.
It’s f—in’ barleh!
Nut milk comes from male cows.
