"I'm sorry, I didn't know your trigger was s*y milk, do you need a safe space to calm down before facing the big scary coffee shop again?"

A proper response to someone giving you shit about soy milk or almond milk or any other type.

Or anyone who parrots Republicans and their AnTi-wOkEnEsS lines.

I am triggered by almond milk!

Because I am allergic, which is why I get oat milk.

Its also really bad for the environment. almonds require a lot of water to grow and guess where people decided to grow them... in a damn desert.

On one hand, I agree. On the other hand, it tends to replace cow milk. Cow milk has quite a few ecological issues, even greater than those of almond milk.

Yup, it's best to avoid Californian Almonds. Luckily there are brands like Alpro who commit to sourcing their Almonds from Spain and Italy instead

Almond milk will get you sent to the bad place

I am allergic to all of them :(

You can always be the one drinking black coffee and nobody will admit that they are mildly in awe of you

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Don't be in awe of that. I drink it black because I have made poor decisions in my life, and the coffee is less bitter than I am.

🫢 holy shit

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

I do, its the only way.

Though coffee shops are getting smarter and making it with oat milk... without letting people know. Now I know why you tell anyone and everyone about your allergies.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I am so sorry. That is more intense than my run of the mill nut and legume allergies.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

Its not the nuts/oats but an (emulsifier?) additive they use in all of them. Actual coconut milk/cream is fine but not from a carton as 'milk'.

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

Even oat? Ouch.
