"I'm sorry, I didn't know your trigger was s*y milk, do you need a safe space to calm down before facing the big scary coffee shop again?"

A proper response to someone giving you shit about soy milk or almond milk or any other type.

Or anyone who parrots Republicans and their AnTi-wOkEnEsS lines.

I am triggered by almond milk!

Because I am allergic, which is why I get oat milk.

Its also really bad for the environment. almonds require a lot of water to grow and guess where people decided to grow them... in a damn desert.

On one hand, I agree. On the other hand, it tends to replace cow milk. Cow milk has quite a few ecological issues, even greater than those of almond milk.

Yup, it's best to avoid Californian Almonds. Luckily there are brands like Alpro who commit to sourcing their Almonds from Spain and Italy instead

Almond milk will get you sent to the bad place

I am allergic to all of them :(

You can always be the one drinking black coffee and nobody will admit that they are mildly in awe of you

I am so sorry. That is more intense than my run of the mill nut and legume allergies.

Even oat? Ouch.

Pro tip: drink/eat anything with lactose, take a picture of the toilet bowl and show it to morons who say this.

Sometimes the alternative also just tastes better. I have coffees I prefer with oatmilk purely for that reason, no issues with standard dairy. Shit, I lived off chocolate Silk for like a year, still haven't found a chocolate milk as good as their old recipe.

Same way I've had General Tsos tofu made with Soy-Vey that was better than a lot of the chicken I've had. I'd happily eat that again, and I'm normally not huge on tofu.

I love oat milk and so does my wife, but because she also likes it and it's expensive she only lets me use it in oatmeal, which I think defeats the point. It's really good in cereal too, but I don't really eat cereal much.
