    Is it 3x cheaper? Because cow’s milk contains 3x the protein of oat milk per cup (250ml). If you’re drinking milk as a source of protein then oat milk isn’t going to be a good substitute.

    Filtered milk is what I buy and it has a shelf life of about a month. That’s plenty for me since I go through a 4L bag in less than a week anyway.

      I… Have never heard of anyone drinking milk for the protein content, why would you do that?

      Milk has like 35g of protein per liter, so 4 liters is 140g of proteins a week… There are more cost effective and pleasant ways of getting that protein you know

      EDIT: i googled what “filtered milk” is, i can guarantee you that it is more than 3x as expensive as oat milk where i live since i’ve never heard of it and would probably have to go to a specialty store or something to get it

        Well where I live 4L of fine-filtered milk costs about the same as a single 946mL carton of oat milk.

        Perhaps you haven’t spent much time around body builders or weight lifters in general. They tend to consume large amounts of milk and/or whey protein as well as eggs.
