(yes, it even uses less water in water-scarce places)

    To make them cheap, make it yourself.

    Making oat milk is a really simple process & to make it more like commercially available products, you can add various other ingredients such as xanthan gum to bind it as well as various things for flavour such as a small amount of cinnamon.

        Nobody has the time to do that.

        Plant milks need to become way cheaper than currently 5x the cost for me in India.

        So you have 3 choices there:

        1. Examine your time management as you will have time that youre actually just procrastinating or pursuing bullshit that doesnt really matter as much as you think. (Dont lie - Very few people actually dont).

        It takes 10 minutes to make a batch. Less time than will take you to walk to a shop (see here for a simple recipe/process: https://minimalistbaker.com/make-oat-milk/ )

        1. Pay 5x the cost for plant based products - is your time really worth that much in exchange for the convenience?

        2. Keep drinking disgusting cows milk.

            I’m not vegan. I just don’t drink milk and I’m certainly not advocating veganism because you don’t have the ability to commit to 10 minutes to make your own oat milk so howTF are you going to make such a lifestyle change?

            All I did was say how easy it is to make yourself as you complained about the cost and when you bleated about your very busy important lifestyle, laid out your options.

            It’s quite obvious the biggest hurdle to you making changes to your life is you so good luck with that and I hope it works out.
