Beware of Asda oat milk, they put sugar or vanilla or something in it. Has a faint taste of Milkybar's (which is fine if you're using it to make a cup of cocoa or something but makes tea taste foul). Also leaves a weird orange powdery residue at the bottom of any tea/coffee.

JÖRĐ and Oatly are both pretty good for having with both cereal and coffee/tea.

Oh aye I hope I didn’t come off as having a go, I just didn’t realise non-dairy milks were so popular in this thread.

Having looked it up just now apparently the answer to whether oat milk is gluten-free is “maybe? idk lol 🤷🏻“, guhh

As a wife of a coeliac who is lactose intolerant, I know the pain of looking for Dairy free and Gluten free drinks.

Basically Soya, Coconut and Almond are all fine.
With Oat drinks, they need to specifically say they are gluten free. As they might be made of oats with gluten or made in a factory that handles gluten and there is a risk of cross contamination. (This is a problem if you are coeliac or have an allergy to gluten. It's not a problem if you are on a gluten free diet, but if you so such a thing you are a terrible person.)

Alpro Oat drink isn't gluten free. Alpro's Barista Oat drink isn't gluten free, but they also do another Barista Oat drink (Barista Professional) which is gluten free. Just study the box and see if it says gluten free on it.

Oat Dream makes a gluten free Oat drink.

It depends on the factory and equipment.

I’m allergic to palm oil and it’s increasingly on the label for everything because it’s taking over from peanut oil as a lubricant in factories.

So what it is with the fruit is that they may be using the same equipment in some part of the process, for example; they may can peaches for 2 weeks, then after routine cleaning, can Tuna. So your Tuna will have “may contain peaches” on the tin because they can’t 100% guarantee there won’t be any peach residue within the system.

True. It also depends on the type of equipment and type of allergen.

For instance with gluten and wheat, it needs to be ground up really fine. Which makes the possibility of some being left behind on the machinery even after a clean quite high.

Essentially when you are dealing with something you are allergic to, imagine that the warning was "This product may have fallen into a pile of dog poo poo."

Now they aren't saying that it definitely made contact with dog poo poo and they did clean it all thoroughly afterwards, but do you want to roll the dice on it?

Now it could just be a coincidence and this is just some temporary storage for some building work or something but at this point in history I'm going to assume someone's dusting off some plans last updated around 1994.

That makes sense, I know people with serious nut allergies whose reaction to "may contain traces" is "meh", and coeliacs who have to firmly insist that their food isn't made on the same surfaces as non-coeliac food lest they spend 3 days in absolute agony.

A brother of mine never drank milk and had to have ALL his teeth removed at the age of 16 as they were falling apart.

Drank semi skimmed for twenty years before returning to the standard stuff, gods all those wasted years.

Skimmed milk tastes like white water.

Genetically i'm fully adapted to dairy but exclude the precious cheese as it goes directly to my waistline (that's only handy in a Famine).
