Maybe i should go to bed altho i feel like you’re being quite dramatic. Two things can be true methinks
Bitch please (also, I’m unfortunatley not on drugs, despite my usual preference so know that.). No need to continue when no value has been initially profferred, its reasonable to say imo
So new, your account. It would be a great feature to remove that
Ive heard things like “almond milk only has like a small amount of almonds per unit sold” or whatever. To the point where it would literally make more sense to eat some almonds with water and be better off
Well, that depends on your objective. If your goal is to eat almonds, then almond milk isn’t very efficient.
If you’re looking for a creamy base for cereal or hot coco, then concentrated almond puree or raw almonds and water is really not ideal.
Adding water to anything dilutes it.
It’s like saying that you’d be better off eating a chicken bone and a glass of water than making broth for soup.
Heh, or that dairy milk is bullshit and you should just eat a stick of butter.
If your goal is “efficiency”, butter gives you more dairy per unit cost. Milk has a lot of water in it, and removing that water and treating the resulting solids different ways gives you different dairy products, of which butter and cheese are two examples.
A stick of butter is not a substitute for a glass of milk, illustrating my point that a fist full of almonds isn’t a substitute for a glass of almond milk.
I don’t have it backwards, I said precisely what I meant.
What do you mean by “greater”? Yes, an almond is more densely “almond” than if it’s diluted with water.
Butter has more dairy solids than milk. Would you consider butter “far greater” than milk?
Almond milk is around 4% almonds.
Whole milk is around 5% butter. (It takes about 22 pounds of whole milk to make a pound of butter).
Milk is 85-90% water, similar to any plant milk.
The point is that different foods aren’t substitutes for one another.
You don’t buy dairy to most efficiently buy milk fats and whey, you’re making cereal or a sauce.
If you’re looking at milk and asking how much isn’t water to decide what to buy, then I weep for your buttery fruit loops.
Actually, an aged cheese like Parmesan might be more efficient. Cheese retains milk fat as well as proteins, and the aging will remove even more water.
Or powdered milk. Just sprinkle a few spoonfuls on your cereal (or rolled oats since they’re more concentrated), eat them dry and have a glass of water.
Not a bad answer although i think it sort of misses the point that its not so much about the overabundance of the water so much as the underabumdance and likely overrexaggeration of the amount of the non-milk content
I mean the reality of these “milks” is that they’re all water with a little something else added in. As long as they taste good and go well with your cereal and coffee, does it really matter if there’s not a lot of non water substance?
At least for me, I just want something I can drink with a piece of coffee cake, or a cookie, or pour over my cereal or oatmeal. I love cows milk, but it gives me the runs these days. I’m not necessarily looking to replace the nutritional value of milk. That’s too hard to do. I’d rather get my protein from another source.
I want you to read the parent comment and extrapolate and make reference to the notion that some plant milks may be falsely representing the amount of the subject content they purport to contain by virtue of that being a “milk” of them
Please educate yourselr prior to feeling the righteousness you are exuding here
I’m not sure what you mean by them not being bullshit, but the best tasting one imo is oat milk

Makes a good hot chocolate too.
Just don’t make it with banana… I tried it and it jelled up.
It’s the fat content that makes it work
“We’ve replaced the milk in Bob’s breakfast cereal with canola oil. Let’s see if he likes it.”
He’s gonna be running to the shitter faster than coffee
It amazrs me how controversial this point perennially seems to be

Fat == good

Cow milk has a small amount of cow too
On a serious note, if you like it, drink it

There’s just no way that equivocates
That’s their point
Please elaborate

The problem is I believe you’ve got that exactly bsckwards in that a fistful of almonds is potentially far greater than a glass full of almond milk
I don’t have it backwards, I said precisely what I meant.

If anything, the bad part of almond milk is that it’s the milk alternative that needs the most water to produce. Like a ton of water.

What are you talking about? Better off how? In what way areplant milks bullshit? What the fuck, man? These are not complete thoughts.
