Lactose in enough quantities gets my tummy rumbling in a bad way so I’m trying out alternatives.
Oat milk in hipster coffee drinks is pretty good.
Soy milk as a protein and calcium beverage is fine. Tastes OK.
There is lactose-free milk too but that is still suspect. Either it’s not all the way lactose free or too much of any kind of dairy quakes my intestines.
I always thought soy milk was pretty good, once I got past the fact that it tastes different. It’s different, not bad, but I feel like there has been about four decades worth of jokes about how soy milk is gross that has cemented the idea that it tastes “off” for many people.
It’s actually pretty easy to make yourself, too. I do that now and then. Makes it even more satisfying to drink.
