Exactly... Ughh I still fail to understand why almond milk is popular among vegans. It's very expensive and doesn't even taste that nice...

Yeah, but store bought is expensive AF. Oatmilk is one of the easiest milks to make at home. Literally get rolled oats, blend them lightly with a blender along with water and strain out the fibre. That's it... That's oat milk for you!

I don't believe you have used the correct plant milks for the correct uses.

1. Soya Milk: Kinda meh taste for hot and cold beverages. U won't go wrong with it. However, this ain't the best product for all uses. U can make tofu tho, which is nice.
2. Oat milk: The best choice for cold beverages. Oat milk has a flavor that is just much better than soy milk in my opinion. While u can use it for hot beverages (and it's delicious there), u need to be kinda careful. The more u heat up oat milk, the thicker it becomes due to the starch present in it. Therefore, never try to boil, or come close to boiling oat milk ever.
3. Coconut milk: If u have anything to say about coconut milk, gtfo from here. It's fatty and can be a substitute for cream. Needless to say, it is absolutely delicious! South Indian curries make use of this. There's also a drink that I love called "Solkadhi", which is an Indian drink made using coconut milk. U just can't talk smack abt it....
4. Chickpea milk: Now this is a use case which I don't know if many people would agree with me out on or no. What I do is, I make chickpea milk to make youghurt out of it (just ferment it using soaking water). Now, in my experience, this yogurt tastes like shit if u consume it alone. HOWEVER, if you use it in curries, gohdddd r u in for the treat of ur lifetime! One, u get a beautiful thick curry and two, u get that amazing acidic flavor. It's just rlly rlly good! Highly recommend if u guys haven't tried this out yet.
5. Other plant milks: There are a gazillion other plant milks. I just mentioned the ones above that I have personal experience with.

In conclusion, try not to fixate on one plant milk alternative and then attempt to use it for all use cases of dairy milk. Remember, there is no monolithic "dairy milk alternative". Different plant milks serve different purposes. If used correctly, u'll get the best culinary experience of ur life!

Well, u gotta sympathize with McCarthy here. Ur Roomba just has to suck in trash. McCarthy has to suck trash and make sure it orgasms.

Quite an interesting read! Thanks for your input :)

Let's go Joe! Hope my fellow Zoomers go out and vote.

Good job! Here's a cookie 🍪

Agreed! Having laws to prevent blasphemy in 2023 is hilariously stupid.

India doesn't need to be brainwashed by Russia. India brainwashes itself. In the World Press Freedom Index (2023), out of 180 countries, India ranks 161 while Russia ranks 164. Unfortunately, India's rank has been dropping rapidly here. In 2021 for instance, the country ranked at 142. India is not the "free, democratic counterweight to China" that the west thinks it to be.

India has some of the highest ranked universities in the world.

Whose capacity is close to nothing for the population. Indian universities fall in two categories: really good ones or absolute shit ones (source: I'm an Indian). There is no middle category. To get into the really good ones, you have to either have an exceptionally good academic performance or have to be extremely rich. Universities outside India fill in the demand of this middle category. Sprinkle in some permanent emigration aspirations and you get a country with a large emigrating student population.

It’s a country famous for putting out doctors.

While it is true that this is the perception of India especially in the west, it is categorically untrue. According to the World Health Organization (2023), India ranks very low in the amount of doctors per 10,000 people relative to developed countries (by more than 300%). If you counter this by saying "this is because all Indian doctors emigrate to the said developed countries", then that would be incorrect again, as around 10% of Indian physicians emigrate and practice in the west.

And don’t forget that a large number of foreign students is also a product of just having a large population.

I believe you are pinning "a large population" as the causal factor behind a high student emigrant population. Had this really been a causal factor, then we would've seen European and American students in Indian Universities proportional to their population (which when combined, makes up around half of India's population). The fact that we do not observe this phenomenon is evidence enough that "a large population" is not the causal factor behind this. Rather, it is the access to good education which plays a much much larger role.

Students. Higher education in India is incredibly bad. Thousands of Indians pay huge sums to get into Canadian unis.

If I paid for that flag, then I should be able to use it as a cum sock if I want to.
