Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.


6. Defend your opinion


This is a bit of a mix of rules 4 and 5 to help foster higher quality posts. You are expected to defend your unpopular opinion in the post body. We don't expect a whole manifesto (please, no manifestos), but you should at least provide some details as to why you hold the position you do.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Are you suggesting we start keeping human women on farms to milk them? Do you really want to go to the store and buy a bottle of breast milk to pour over your cereal?

Soy milk is better alternative. If you don't like the taste, try coconut milk, oat milk, almond milk, cashew milk, etc.

If I use milk in anything it's usually oat milk, but I still like things like cheese and ice cream sometimes

There are vegan versions of those too, they're just less common.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

There's no good vegan alternative to cheese. I tried a couple and they all taste like shit.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

My honest tip would be: Just forget that something like cheese even existed and eat something else. Even I (as a full time vegan) don't really like the "cheese" we have - but since I just don't eat anything "cheese-like" anymore, I'm really not bothered to be honest.

I've had some vegan cheeses that were made with fermented coconut and they were pretty darn good. And I hate regular coconut.

Ice cream alternatives are actually really good now.

Fake cheese is still foul.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Sometimes I get the coconut milk ice cream. It tastes good but it's definitely not the same, so I go back and forth

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

smh, this just kicks the can down the road. almond milk is for baby almonds. and what are the lil newborn coconuts gonna drink? cashews will actually die if they don't have the proper milk in the first few weeks.

Do you really want to go to the store and buy a bottle of breast milk to pour over your cereal?

But... that is EXACTLY what people are doing?! 🤷 Maybe not from a human, but still from a mother.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yo what that was your first thought instead of rice milk, oat milk, coconut milk, almond milk or just not eating cereal. You are a big boy, you'll be alright without baby milk.

Ethics tip: If something feels pretty fucked up when doing it to a human it’s probably safe to assume you shouldn’t do that to a non-human animal

I have nipples. Will you milk me?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Can’t I just go to the neighbors?
