minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish12•9 months agoBecause protein and calorie density are the only two conceivable reasons to drink a non-dairy milk? That’s a weird take. FWIW, 8 oz of soy milk gives you 7 grams of protein vs. cow milk’s 8 grams. And 8 oz of soy milk will give you 80 calories to cow milk’s 103. I mean, if you’re really that hard up over 1 gram of protein and calories, you could just pour a little more soy milk.
