“Consumption of milk per capita has gone down every year over the last 30 years,” says Sylvain Charlebois, director of the Agri-Food Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University. “Actually, it’s gone down by more than 20 per cent since 2015.”

While bagged milk is often cited as a unique Canadianism, it’s actually not sold west of Ontario. Those who prefer it, however, say it’s more cost efficient and some even believe it tastes better.

      It is much easier to raise a goat on a small acreage than it is to farm enough oats to extract a worthwhile amount of oat milk.

      Also, haven’t liked any oat milk I’ve tried. To be fair I don’t like goat milk either, but it is much closer to what I’m used to, and would definitely be easier to get used to
