Tracking calories for weight loss, I realized that milk is “heavy”, and I poured a lot of it into my coffee. Now I can think of better use for these calories (in solid form) in my <2000kcal deficit plan.

    Soy milk has about half the calories as cow milk (and is friendlier for climate), perhaps that can save your coffee.

          EU subsidies and competitive pricing stuff happening for cow milk (it’s one of these products supermarkets consider essential and thus they aim to compete with Aldi prices). Also for soy products since they are considered “lifestyle” products producers and stores assume they can make more profit from those.

        Just an acquired taste. I missed the taste of milk for half a year. Now 5 years later I prefer my brand of soy or a barista oat milk.

      If it works for your tastebuds it is a nice option I guess, I rather drink coffee “black” or non coffee though as I could not get used to the taste or rather it just does not generate that satisfactory feeling for me…
