Both soy and oat, because they weren't filled with chemical crap.  I had to hunt for stuff that wasn't full of weird lab-created thickening gums.

I am thinking that this might be the death of me.

If you drink enough of it, it may actually push out the other chemical crap you pack into that tiny little body of yours!!!  I recommend a purely liquid diet (soy and/or oat  milk only) for a period of one week.  Then a fast for a couple days. Then an aggressive cleanse.  Repeat for three months and you will be in great shape!

You only need oats and water.  The thickeners are just to prevent the heavier pieces of oat from sinking at a rapid pace.

I haven't been using the Xanthan gum.  It is ok without it.

I make my own. It costs about a quarter per quart and takes about five minutes to make. It's delcious.

You two are so wrong, you may almost have gone all the way around to being right!  WTF???

And you want us to be sympathetic to your cause, when even TJs store brand clearly reads "beverage" and not "milk"?!?!?!?

Your generation's outrage culture is out of control.

Tiny?  I am a corpulent mass of mobile marbled semi-solid lipids.  Tiny, I haven't been tiny in forever!

Want to impress me, make your own water.  

I suggested to a supervisor that my performance evaluation should read...."is so good that he fused the hydrogen and oxygen molecules with his bare hands to create the water to walk on." Sadly, he wouldn't make that part of my personnel record. :(

I like that they aren't calling it a milk.  There is another oat beverage they are calling a milk that I am outraged about, that has at least two gums in it or it would slip right through the packaging, it would be so thin.

What is the advantage of oat milk?  I don't get it..

It is not milk, for the folks that are outraged that it is not milk, yet the product self-identifies as milk and will shortly be demanding its own stupid pronoun.

Buy that one!  Let's see how they stack up.  Get you gal pal in the sampling too.  We'll see how things rank!

It is way better for our planet.  Cow milk industry does a lot of damage and it seems somewhat inhumane.  

The resources to make a quart of oat milk are so miniscule compared to a quart of cow milk.

I like the oat milk creamer.I am almost totally off the cow.

Our planet is doomed already.  I am not buying that the fake milks taste better, though.  Milk is the gold standard for flavor.

That said, I have seen studies that suggest that milk interferes with the ability to process nutrients from fruit.  I thought I would rotate real milk and fake milks in green smoothies and hedge my bets.

Look at you, being all woke AF. 

I am still pissed about idiots demanding and getting pronouns used that describe multiple people to describe one person.  If someone doesn’t like he or she, that person’s preferred name can easily be used instead of a pronoun, rather than screwing up major language infrastructure.

Neural plasticity stymied again :(  Damn, it is hard to get old dogs to think differently.  I wonder, in the 31 millions seconds of a year, how many you devote to conversations with one of those he/she/them vs how many you devote to beotching about using he/she/them.  Hopefully your experience far outweighs your judginess :)

I already have a buxom babe that is not leaking from oat nipples.

You just keep drinking that soy milk and you might become the buxom one with leaking nipples.  And just think how your voice will sound a couple octaves higher.

Sadly, for medical reasons i have been off dairy for the better part of the last two years, and will be for the foreseeable future... of the alternatives I've tried, oat is the clear winner as far as flavor, but i wish it had more protein. The pea protein milk ("Ripple" and others) is probably the best for me but I'm not a fan of the taste. 

(On the plus side - my cholesterol numbers are sparkling.)

Hence my comment/suggestion earlier of "Or a girl friend with large breasts who may be lactating????  RG is at least halfway there!!! "
