coconut milk Very smooth and satisfying <=1 g natural sugars so basically carb-free amazing replacement for milk in cereal and smoothies
minus-squarerudyharrelson@lemmy.radiolinkfedilinkarrow-up11arrow-down1·26 days agoI found almond milk to be a great substitute a couple of years ago when I was dieting. Particularly the ‘unsweetened, vanilla’ variety from Almond Breeze. As an added bonus, it also has a much longer shelf life than regular milk.
minus-squareJubilantJaguar@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·26 days agoFor information, almond milk is by far the least environmentally sustainable milk substitute. Almond farming is extremely water-intensive.
minus-squarewhynotzoidberg@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·26 days agoAh damn, and it looks like almonds are grown mostly in California. Adding insult to injury. California-grown almonds account for 80 per cent of the world’s commercial almond production. (From https://davidsuzuki.org/living-green/the-best-plant-based-milks-for-the-planet/)
