    I am 100% not a vegan. I eat meat and cheese and eggs and pretty much all animal products. So hear me when I say I regularly grab oat milk when I’m at the store.

    It’s not just the best milk substitute, it is better than regular milk.

      I evaluate basically all my food with what I call “hotdog math”. my wife hates it. my local gas station sells hotdogs at 2/$1. the free toppings can push the calories count near 550, but I know nothing comes close, so I round down to 500. milk beats oatmilk on hotdog math, and carries a wider diversity of nutrients, to boot.

        Cow milk is usually only cheaper because of subsidies, otherwise it would be much more expensive.

          I don’t know how this can be verified, nor does it matter at the point of sale

        Your wife is right to hate it. It’s rather shallow and narrow-minded.

        That aside, if calories-to-price is your metric, are you growing your own food?
