Plastic is unrecyclable. Seafood eats plastic and dies. This is starting to affect us as well as plastic has been found in humans. Toxic chemicals to make plastics from petrochemicals that come from fossil fuels. Fracking causes earthquakes and poisons the groundwater which can lead to cancer. So plastic is really bad for the environment, the reusable dont even compare. If you use plastic make sure it is reused. Single use plastic is a killer.

@@101yayo There's a study that looked at the impact of reusable bags compared with plastic grocery bags.

If I recall you need to use the reusable backs something like 6 times as long to break even. Totally still possible but not a slam dunk.

To elaborate on the point about bees and almonds: the bees are shipped to California from across the United States each year while the almond trees are in bloom. This practice started when California's almond orchards were no where near as massive as they are now, but they currently require billions of honey bees to pollinate them each year. There seems to be some contradicting information on the effect that this has on bees, but I've read that it can take weeks or months for hives to recover after being being shipped back (and not all do recover), and that movement and changing directions of the trucks disorients the bees while they're being shipped.

3:38 you didn’t drink milk out of a coconut I think. The liquid that comes out of a coconut is sometimes called “coconut water”. The Milk is ground coconut flesh mixed with water and squeezed. The stuff that comes out of just squeezed ground is coconut cream. Mix it with water and you have coconut milk. The dry stuff is then made into coconut flour. 4:54 Filberts are marketed as hazelnuts. Edit: for clarity between coconut milk and cream.

not really. you can get coconut water directly when the fruit is still young. It's the kind in which the color of the husk is still green and the meat is soft and sweet. Coconut milk is extracted from mature coconuts(husk is brown and meat is hard). After opening the fruit, the meat is scraped and by then you can squeeze the milk so, -Both still come naturally from fruit -the coconut water you buy from store is also processed bec. fresh coco water spoils easily.

I was too when I first cut out milk. To get past it I'd just buy a new type of milk every single time I went to the store. Over time I weeded out the ones I did and did not like. So now I always pick up one case of a milk I know I like and one I want to try or forgot if I liked it and want to try again. Within like 2 months you will have tried almost every milk and will know which ones you like. If it helps you remember, start picking up milks from one side of the aisle and work your way over so tha you don't forget where you ended last time.

Almost negligible when dealing with the other factors involved. Shipping produces very little emissions when you view it as a per product basis when comparing products. What milk you choose has a far far greater impact on the environment than where that milk comes from. Maybe if you're using hundreds of thousands of gallons as an individual it would, but if you're just buying it from yourself then where the milk comes from doesn't matter so much.

windriel Well, I have tried a lot of different plant milks. In fact, after trying some of them, I stopped consuming dairy milk completely. Not only better for the environment and your health, but also tastes great! I’ll rank the ones I like from best to worst in my opinion. Oat milk is my favourite by far. It is slightly sweet and has a very creamy and rich texture. Almond milk would rank the second for me. It is very mild and has this nice slightly bitter nutty taste of almonds. Cashew milk is really nice. Similar to almond milk, but lacks the slight bitterness and might be more creamy. Rice milk is also pretty good, especially if you like sweetness. It has a lot of naturally occurring sugars, which make it the sweetest out of all milks. Though rice milk is the least creamy from my experience. I like soy milk in terms of texture and initial taste. It’s relatively creamy and the taste is quite neutral, though some soy milks have a bit of an aftertaste that I don’t particularly enjoy. Soy milk is also a bit more difficult to digest, so best not to drink too much at once (but this may only be my experience, as I suspect I might have a soy intolerance).

If you’re new avoid all nut milks because they take some getting used to (they don’t taste very similar to dairy) but soy and oat taste very similar imo they taste better
@carolinapietracci58574 жыл бұрын
In my opinion coconut milk has the most similar taste to dairy. Rice milk is the sweetest. Oat is my favorite bc it is sweet but not as much as rice milk and it is quite creamy. Almond and soy milk are good, imo these don't taste like milk at all but I still enjoy them as a drink. I only drink dairy alternatives bc honestly I tried them once and liked how they taste as a drink. I was never a big fan of milk. I wouldn't drink a glass of milk but I definitely enjoy the taste of alternatives.

Though I am lucky enough to be able to afford alternative milks, we can't discount the fact that cow's milk is the least expensive, which is a HUGE decision factor for both individuals and families who can't afford to think about sustainability. This is a demographic that cannot be ignored. I can get 4 liters of high quality milk for $7 CAD, whereas (in my area anyway) oat milk costs range from $6 CAD for Oatly, up to a whopping $9 CAD for Califia Farms Barista oat milk for 0.95 liters (NOT EVEN ONE LITER). Economy of scale comes into play here, but for the alternatives to becomes as affordable as cow's milk, production must scale up to levels where their carbon footprint might rival that of cow's milk. This means that the question is not only of "which milk is best", but also "why must sustainable decisions be so expensive" and "why are people so poor". Edit: I realize the alternative milks I buy are "barista grade" which are usually more expensive, but even the most basic soy milk is more costly than cow's milk.
@CharmEng894 жыл бұрын
soy milk is super easy to get in Asia, whereas other imported milks such as nut and dairy can be expensive especially if you buy the fresh, non-UHT sort. Keeping in mind that consuming imported milk increases the carbon footprint, I'd say it also depends on where you get your milk and how far it has to travel. Sadly, living in a country that depends very much on imports to stay alive both in the food and economical sense, this is a cost we are kinda stuck with for now.

cashew milk is really nice (though i find the taste is very mild) but as far as I know, production of cashew in general is a bit problematic as its fruit is toxic and the 3 main countries where cashew is grown commercially don't provide good labor conditions and necessary protection for farmers, so there are ethical problems with the production of the nut itself. Also because it travels a good amount and local sourcing is almost impossible, its carbon footprint is rather big.

@AsapScience just so you know, my mom has been lactose intolerant since I was a teen so I started drinking alternative milk for over 20 years. For 10 of those years we drank Soy mainly, and I didn't drink a lot. I would add some in my coffee, just a splash in the morning, and occasionally drink a full glass while eating cookies with my sister. Yet despite the low consumption rate, my entire family suffered from vitamin B and D deficiency. Then our doctor told us that Soy inhibits the absorption of certain vitamins, so we switched to Almond, and within just a few months of doing so, those deficiencies disappeared. So I think the effect of soy is being tone downed for financially reasons.

A point I think is very important to consider is where your products are produced and how much transportation they need so you can acces them.

One of the nutritional benefits of milk and dairy is that it is a high protein source, so it can serve as an alternative to meat. Milk has 8 grams of protein per 8 oz. cup. All of these plant-based milks have much less protein--80% to 90% less. Kids are already eating a ton of cold cereals--the milk they pour on it is the only protein they get. Swap that for plant milk and now they have a 90% sugar and carb breakfast.
