If I promise to switch to oat milk, can I keep the cheese?
I mean any switch is doing something. People who try to switch everything completely all at once end up failing a lot because it's overwhelming.
There are some good almond and cashew cheeses though, and now they can make non animal whey that is chemically equivalent to dairy whey... So identical cheese is coming. They already have identical non animal cream cheese and ice cream
yeah I'm not sure what I can do about milk/cheese. We've actually been mostly beef & pork free (from grocery) for several years, replacing with poultry, beans, and some fish.
but milk? man that's tough. we have kids, and we go through a lot of milk. oat milk would be expensive as a 1:1 replacer. small steps!
If you don't do any meatless meals I highly recommend it for saving money. Our grocery bill would be insane right now if we ate as much meat as we used to. My go to is stir fry with an egg on top or a soup/stew. Dont even miss the meat cause it's so flavorful even without it
Cheese has 5 times the waterfootprint of dairy milk.
