Have you looked at the ingredients of oat milk?
It's water with vegetable oil and just enough oats for the taste.
I'm lactose intolerant. What's your point?
My point is, that oat milk lattes are not the "best" lattes, they're oily not creamy, and that the flavor of oats does not align with coffee.
I'm diabetic and have to avoid lactose too, amongst many other things.
Oat milk might be a fine beverage, if you're into oily watery horse food, but a substitute for proper milk it is not.
You're trying really hard to be objectively correct about this silliness. No wonder there's a stigma about coffee snobs.
I'm not trying to be objectively correct at all.
It's just really easy to make fun of people who drink poncy "milk" because everyone secretly wants it to be some magical elixir delicately squeezed from the nipples of plump little oats tended by fat little bumble bees in Tasmania.
Literally you: "Of course proper milk is superior to oat milk."
That's very obviously a subjective statement.
