Matilda's LabI've recently learnt that the environmental implications of ruminants are more complex than simple, methane = bad. Then, remember that plant-based milks are ultra-processed food products. If only this stuff were as simple as rocket science.

How chemical reactions deplete nutrients in plant-based drinks
A University of Copenhagen study of plant-based drinks reveals a common issue: they are lacking in proteins and essential amino acids compared to cow’s milk. The explanation lies in their extensive processing, causing chemical reactions that degrade protein quality in the product and, in some cases, produce new substances of concern.A University of Copenhagen study of plant-based drinks reveals a common issue: they are lacking in proteins and essential amino acids compared to cow’s milk.
