[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had been putting oat milk in my coffee and just found out that it is more like pitting sugary pancake syrup in my coffee. I have a PhD and I can't figure out what to eat! At least I can afford a nutritionist. Why is it so complicated?[/quote]

My DD is lactose intolerant so she started drinking Almond Milk.  I searched for the purist almond milk I could find, that only had Almonds and Water, and could only find 1 brand (I think it may have salt or 1 other ingredient).  The solution?  Make my own.  It's quite simple, tastes better and I can make it in smaller batches.  You can do the same for Oat Milk.[/quote]

Actually it isn’t.  Most oat mills they don’t “add” in additional sugar- look at the ingredients.    But how they have to squeeze and process the oats, the natural sugars in the oats separate in the “milking” process so when everything is put together for the final product it has to be labeled as “added” sugar.  Though it really isn’t.  It is from carbohydrates that were already present in the oats pre-milking.  The kind you make it home will have the same amount of sugar. [/quote]
Yes and it turns out that oat milk is just a carbohydrate bomb, even the stuff without added sugar. I love me some Oatly, but I’m not going to play along like it’s healthy. [/quote]

Carbs in and of themselves are not bad for you. I have a latte every morning before I workout made with 6 oz of Oatly. It tastes better and froths better than any other milk I’ve used and I can’t do dairy due to lactose intolerance. Different people have different nutritional needs. Would you put a black box warning on Oatly?[/quote]
This is why I disagree with black box warnings. For me, yes. I don’t need anything that hits my bloodstream like that and Oatly hits about as bad as a glass of soda. [/quote]
