As part of their marketing, an American dairy company listed the cows' names on their yogurt pots... Irma, Fanny, Julie and so on. They received a complaint that, as the cows all had girl names, this was misogynistic.
Joking aside, I think it could be a potential health hazard to mix milk from an old carton opened say 24hrs or more ago, with a newly opened one.
Have you tried swapping from cow's milk? Waitrose soya milk is about 9% soya beans (higher content than others & the nicest I've tried). Better for the environment.
But what do you do with all the redundant cows?
Nah, proper cows milk, skimmed or full fat. No soya, sheep, goat or any other substitute. Cow juice been a staple for 100s of years.
Banana milk is good too, though doesn’t work in tea.

I've tried many alternatives over the years, I can't get on board with them largely from a taste & consistency perspective. I often drink my coffee black now, but when I fancy some milk I use dairy.
I've cut most meat out of my diet, I only tend to eat it twice a week or so and when I do its from 2 legs or none. I find dairy alternatives more difficult to switch to, despite trying many )(especially cheese & milks). I worked for a company that invested in this area so at one stage was trying dozens a week as the samples were always kicking around the office, some much better than others but never IMO hitting the spot for me.

No link so presume this is a joke. Pull the udder one.

Agreed, have you seen all the crap that goes in to soya milk, might ethically be good for the planet but more over processed sh1t in one’s diet not so sure & as far as sheep & or goats no thanks, only good in a curry!

The ingredients of my soya milk are 9% soya beans, 91% water.

This may shock you but there are different brands. Some crap, some good.
In a previous job I worked for a pretty whacky founder. He was getting really annoyed at the cost of cream which was a primary ingredient in our biggest ticket products. We hedged the prices to a degree but were going to get stung in the not too distant future.
Anyhoo he sent me off to pull a business case together to lease some land in Ireland and buy our own cows. Was interesting actually, having to model out the gestation period of cows, their milk output, vet bills, equipment. We never bothered doing it though, mostly because someone thought to mention to him that none of us had the first fecking clue about cows, at which point he agreed.
Despite this, I'm still sat here shook that we drink a bottle of milk that's likely come from, what, tens, hundreds of cows? Disgusting.
I going to ask for a cow for my birthday.
And a milk maid?

They would get far more complaints if someone had milked a Brian or Barry for their yoghurts

When I got in last night I saw that I had just under a pint of semi-skimmed milk left in the fridge but that the use by date was the 24th. So I chucked in half of the litre of soya milk (Morrisons, no airs and graces about me) I had just bought so that I have a suitable quantity to last until Saturday.
