I do not believe it. This is just more advertizing-lies by the media whoredom industry.

[Coach85]

We need to move away from the notion that dairy is necessary for everyone regardless of age. It's not.

[BartSimpson]

Soy is flat out deadly to women who are susceptible to estrogen driven lobular breast cancers.

It is NOT the 'miracle food' that so many whackadoodles would have you believe it is.

MMMMM.....Soy milk.....a tall cold glass of something that tastes like grass.

What do you believe is the best dairy alternative? Almond milk milk?

They're supposed to feed it to the goddam baby and stick to wine!

Yeah I think it’s weird too.

Humans, like all mammals, are naturally lactose intolerant after infancy. We are also the only creatures in the history of this planet to consume the milk of another creature.

That said, I eat dairy and give my kid milk because it’s convenient source of nutrition.

One of my areas of interest lately has been Neolithic and Bronze Age history. The feature that allows humans to consume dairy into adulthood is called lactase persistence and was never more than a rare random mutation but appears to have become a deliberately selected trait long after the advent of farming. In Europe the trait seems to correlate to the invasion of nomadic horse-riding herders who invaded from the Eurasian steppes in the Copper Age, ca 3500 BCE and subjugated then interbred with the local North and Central European crop farmers. In northern latitudes where there’s less sunlight especially UVB, there’s less opportunity for the body to manufacture vitamin D (which comes from UVB sunlight interacting with exposed skin) and so those able to digest the vitamin D rich dairy would presumably have been healthier, stronger and more desirable mates (for this same reason, it’s thought light skin also became prevalent in the north). Herders in Africa also developed their own genetic mutation for lactose tolerance although probably for other nutritional benefits such as calcium rather than Vitamin D because UVB light is abundant in those latitudes.

That’s my unsolicited info for the day.

IKR! 'Milk' is just fat and protein globules suspended in water. It can be animal fat and protein, or plant fat and protein.

I couldn't imagine walking down the street and seeing a young lady with a young kid and saying "Hey lady! You look like you are lactating, can I have a pull of those teats just to wash down the cookie I ate?". Seems weirder now to do the same thing with cows or goats. And I grew up partly on a dairy farm!

I'm not crazy about soy milk, I prefer almond or cashew. I make it myself too. Very easy. And I've used it pretty much everywhere I used to use cow milk; baking, cooking etc. For the most part, it works perfectly well.

For me, water. For you, whatever you want to believe.

The concept of "best" does not apply to dairy alternatives. Drinking dairy is more of a placebo than anything else.

Cashew milk is the only dairy alternative that I really drink or use on cereal. I do use almond and cashew in baking, but only for flavor, not as an alternative to dairy. For the most part, I find almond milk too 'watery' tasting to be a beverage. I'd just as soon have plain water or water with a shot of juice in it for flavour.

I almost never drink any of them. I might use them as 'creamer' for tea, or in bread. But which one I use depends on what kind of nuts I have in the pantry. Might be hazelnuts, might be walnuts. Whatever was cheap at Costco. Doesn't matter. They are all good on my museli.

When it comes to coffee or tea, I only use real cream. The 18%, not arf n' arf because I use only a little and only have one or two cups in the morning .....usually.

For me it depends on the lady.
