I agree. I eat a lot of meat. But one day in the week I have oats with fruits as breakfast. Having no access to raw milk, i looked for replacement to soak the oats in. First a ricemilk, but after having found out it had some form of soy added, i dumped it. The job's tears is 100% pure. excellent replacement IMO.

Whoops was meaning to reply to the post rather than your comment. Hope you find a raw milk source. Recently lost my cow milk source so I know how that goes. Got some goat milk, but it's pricier not great for making butter.

It is the position of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics that appropriately planned vegetarian, including vegan, diets are healthful, nutritionally adequate, and may provide health benefits for the prevention and treatment of certain diseases. These diets are appropriate for all stages of the life cycle, including pregnancy, lactation, infancy, childhood, adolescence, older adulthood, and for athletes. Plant-based diets are more environmentally sustainable than diets rich in animal products because they use fewer natural resources and are associated with much less environmental damage. Vegetarians and vegans are at reduced risk of certain health conditions, including ischemic heart disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, certain types of cancer, and obesity. Low intake of saturated fat and high intakes of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, soy products, nuts, and seeds (all rich in fiber and phytochemicals) are characteristics of vegetarian and vegan diets that produce lower total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels and better serum glucose control. These factors contribute to reduction of chronic disease
