I knew this in the mid 90s (I'm a 1991 baby). One thing my parents taught me was that the ingredient that's 1st on the least has the highest amount, and so on (from highest to lowest). Most things are fine in moderation, but that's the trick, what is that moderation for something? I will say this, here in Australia, I learned of an ongoing joke that Macca's doesn't use beef in their burgers, instead it's just flavoured cardboard. Of course, it is actually beef (sort of), but the joke still stands. I've even said if I was having a double cheese burger and vegan extremists turned up with their "meat is murder" bs, I'd counter with "Well jokes on you, this isn't meat, it's cardboard with meat flavouring".

I’m lactose intolerant and I get the lactose free milk, it’s just milk with the lactase enzyme added in for you. It’s noticeably sweeter due to the lactose in milk being broken down into the sugars glucose and galactose. Same amount by weight but sweeter since the amount has technically doubled.
@Gyrfalcon312 Imagine it like how bread itself isn't really sweet, but if you chew on it for long enough the starches break down and now it's super sweet. Similar thing with lactose. At the point where your body breaks it down, you're not tasting the sweetness.

Hi, long time chef with enough experience to be a dietician here. Milk is not bad for you! If you are lactose intolerant, you can drink a type of milk called A2A2 milk, aka lactaid milk. And the best part, the milk is way better quaility than even regular milk.
Lactose Free Milk is the only one i've found to taste sweet, and that's because most brands use Lactase to break it down into Galactose and Glucose which are quite sweet (even then it's not even like a single spoon of sugar per cup sweet)
@@stoffni There maybe more to it than it seems In my own experience it goes bad faster, but it doesnt curd like regular milk, instead it becomes disgustingly acid in taste
@@Donovarkhallum I said _LacTASE_ Which is an enzyme that breaks down _LacTOSE_ into glucose and galactose. everything from the milk fat It's also the reason for Lactose intolerance, either your body produces too little, or none at all, and that results in intolerance
I actually try to go for products sweetened with cane sugar - because I at least know what that will do to my body - so seeing them market their product as being free of it is off-putting.
OH, I didn't catch that. Thanks. Just looked it up and the cheaper ones cost around 1€(1,09$) per liter. The average is about 1,35€(1,47$) per liter. That's still a really big difference. @@actuallyKriminell
The simplest way to do the health analysis on foods is to stop buying packaged and processed foods. If your food was brought to you by a corporation, chances are it is bad for you. I slimmed down from nearly 370 pounds down to 245 in a year by dropping processed foods & drinks. Four years later & my weight still hovers around 240, but I'm tall & shaped like an ox. I can still have carbs & the occasional bit of junk food, but it is an exception rather than the norm.
While I agree processed dairy (and even organic dairy) is best avoided or kept to a minimum. This guy would report on most fruits and veggies like: _"They contain _*_POTASSIUM!_*_ A substance known to _*_EXPLODE_*_ on contact with water!"_
Regular ol Whole Cow's Milk IS sweet, it's just that most people's tastebuds nowadays are bombarded with so much sugar you can barely taste the sweetness of milk, if you go on Keto or other Carb-Starvation diets, after a few weeks you are going to become hypersensitive to sweetness and you are gonna discover a whole new world of sweet, like a couple drops of honey are enough to sweeten coffee and stuff like that
From normal and "meat" cows milk is sweet, pretty noticeable. But most farmable for milking "milk" cows produce less "fat" and less "sweet" product. It is mild even neutral on sweet side.
6:08 dam. thats still expensive. here 1L carton cost anywhere from 0.90€ to 1.5€ and the more costly ones are some special ones with added vitamins etc
one thing from doing keto for years is that i learned a ton about food, how much garbage they put in the standard american diet and blame it on dumb shit like meat, and how much of the typical things weve been told is bad is actually good and was just a red herring to stay away from going after sugar and corn and vegetable oils. the thing is, the first thing you learn on keto is to stay away from packaged foods including things labeled as keto because theyre mostly just low carb so theres not much money you can make on pushing keto unlike something like vegan where theres so much fake crap you can do with shoving oils and grain together.
Fun fact: i dont know if its used worldwide, but concentrate can be used to mean that the water has been extracted, so you have concentrated dehydrated juice thats completely natural and no additives. Just no water. And once you re-add water its just normal juice.
the fun part is the "saves the environment" argument isn't even true, tricky thing is the plants used for these milk/protein substitutes give a low yield of the part that is needed so you need "a lot" to make "a little". if you wanted to replace the current market demand for milk and protein in america alone the land you would need for those crops to fill that demand would take up all of south america (and for anyone that wants to make the argument that soybeans are used as feed for cows, those soybeans are a different strain of soybean that are bilogically engineered to produce higher yields and are safe for cows' consumption but are not fit for human consumption, it would be like substituting lawn grass seed for wheat)
I am really glad that Alana, the original video are showing people how much a scam it is. Their lot of good enzymes in milk too Grate Job Alana ❤❤ your reactions are priceless
if the sun decided to throw a fit and fry all our electrics.. and we had to go back to the OLD WAYS of living? the hipsters wouldnt last.. having to drink ACTUAL MILK to sustain themselves.
10:23: I wouldn't call it sweet either, but it has some sweetness hints. And normal milk has about 4,7g/100ml of suger in it. Orange juice has 9,3g/100ml. Coca Cola, at least in Germany, about 10,6g/100ml. Oatly in Germany has 3,4g/100ml of sugar. And only water, oats(10%) and sea salt as ingredients.
OK, try to blend together 900 g of water, 100 g of oats and a few pitches of salt. Then, filter that and tell me how it tastes just like store branded "oatmilk".
Amylase doesn't have to be declared when it's not in the final product. And the 3,4g of sugar have to come from somewhere. You can buy amylase for yourself. Then you can make the same thing Oatly does in Germany and it should taste very similar. I don't really get the point you try to make here. Are you saying I lied about the ingredient list? You can look that up for yourself. @@NimiKhan
Regarding almond milk. We've been making the stuff since the middle ages. Most countries just don't have lent anymore and we invented refridgerators and pasteurization.
15:31 all that matters is dosage. literally everything is bad for you, in a high enough dose. Moderation is more important than what you put in your body.
I think it is also illegal to market these substitute "milk" drinks as any kind of milk since they don't actually contain any milk. They have to be called oat drinks. Or at least this is the case here in Finland.
@@CruelestChris It's true in every single EU country, including the UK prior to brexit (not sure it it's still the case there): "On June 14, 2017, the European Court of Justice (ECJ) ruled that plant-based products cannot be labeled with dairy names such as "milk" or "butter" even if the plant origin is clearly indicated on the label."
Funny how that is... Yet blood oranges don't contain any blood in them, or coconut cream doesn't contain any cream in it. Language changes constantly and we call this white liquid that goes well with coffee as milk, same as we call a tube of grounded protein as a sausage. It's just corporations fighting over their capitalisation of products and nothing more. It's just completely stupid at this point.
@@finniko1995 How is it about corporations fighting? It's corporations doing whatever they can to sell product to consumers, and government organs regulating those corporations so they're not allowed to do anything they want. Otherwise you could just put orange colored Gatorade in a carton and label it as "orange juice".
@@ThePelitin Well I would totally get your point if it actually applies like this, but I just find it funny how only these new plant based products are targeted and nothing more. You couldn't call a big portion of products on the shelves as their suggested name if that rule applies, since they aren't following the same recipes and ingredients as some other products. Take sausages for example, since I mentioned that before. There are plenty of sausages on the market that have more flour in them than actual meat. Yet these aren't called as "meat based pastry". It quite literally is agriculture lobbyists defending their income by any means necessary because they have seen how much popularity the alternatives are getting. You can even read about it in some news articles. As long as there's no purposeful misleading with the name, there shouldn't be any laws broken. Like if you decide to call your plant based products as oat milk or bean patty.
17:17: I mean what he said could be very much true. And he deliberately said EUROPE. Like I said in another comment, in Germany Oatly only has water, oats and salt in it. (The amylase is probably used too, but as long as it isn't in the final product, you don't have to declare it. But I don't actually know, whether it's used or not.) It's a pretty scummy tactic to equate to different products with the same name.
Drink real milk, or make your own almond milk. literally just break up some raw almonds and let them soak in water for a few days. Lightly boil it to get rid of the water and concentrate it if it tastes too watery.
16:50 oh the FDA standars for information in products is insane, i live in Chile, we have very good label laws, and the products comming from USA need to be relabeled cause the info those produce have is barely more that what we legally require for pet food... its actually insane.
Thank you for reacting to these videos I'd never watch on my own due to not wanting to benefit their creators! 🙏 May the heavens grant Alana unlimited kids
For people who want alternatives, get a soy milk machine, buy a giant bag of soy beans, dump it in with water, blend and add however much sugar, and it tastes 10x better than store bought soy milk.
This video, this is why i dont watch youtube videos about health Jesus Christ. I'm less then 3 minutes in, watching the reaction and god, there's so much "wait a minute" points into it, god. edit: @12:47 Oh, thank god. Thank you Alana. Yes, This line here. man.
Like my comment on that other food video i say it again. Reject weird food replacements and kidney stone milk. And enjoy your coffee and cookies with real milk while watching SmugAlana.
never bought starbucks in my life, will never pay 10 bucks for a coffee, i'm in france ffs, 1 espresso 1 small candy or chocolate treat 1 glass of water less than 3 euros, never ever i'm gonna drink that expensive pisswater.
I get the same feeling about people that use cooking oil in a pan vs a small slice of butter, is butter healthy overall maybe not, but the fats in butter are natural where as cooking oils cause cancer.
The kitchen I work in literally use Oatly brand "oat milk". We serve students training to become racing jockeys for racehorses, I really hate the smug sort of attitude they have when having oat milk, as if they're better than anyone for drinking something different
Another thing that the oatly guys have gotten in trouble for is using the word "milk" in their advertising and labeling. This might not sound like much but they've been/are being sued over this by DMI (Dairy Management Incorporated) which is a government established non profit org in the US that all US based dairy farmers are legally required to pay into to safeguard the dairy industry so that the government doesn't have to step in and subsidize them again. They do huge amounts of both industry work and advertising specifically for things like milk and cheese and guys like oatly or the almond milk producers take advantage of that advertising by labeling their products as a 'milk' while not contributing to DMI which both hurts the dairy industry and infringes on a bunch of product branding that was established and is backed by the US federal government in order to keep a large sector of our agriculture industry safe.
Now I understand why I hated Starbucks coffee when I tried it. It was so insultingly sweet I could not taste anything other than sugar. I barely finished that cup...
it is like all of the products that put gluten free even though they are made with rice, oats, or corn. if you read fine print it says specifically contains no wheat gluten, cus it isn't actually gluten free. if you make something with rice flour it is going to have rice gluten.
Literally gulping down my last glass of delicous oatly right now. Not sure if they are using the same recipe in germany as in the US (due to regulations), but I can live cow's milk just fine.
The best way to reduce your carbon footprint and have the healthiest thing is to find A small local food market that Source directly from local farmers. Full stop. It's so insanely simple. I really hate the movement painting dairy as evil. Big corporate Forms yes, they kind of suck. But if you find a small local farm, I guarantee you that that farmer puts his cows vet bills before his own health bills. A huge secret that a lot of the people pushing this propaganda like to forget is that cows need to be healthy to give you good milk and to give you good meat, they need to be happy. An unhappy cow gives less milk it gives worse meat.
Ehh, where I live dairy is painted as ... not Evil, but one of the big problems, in part because an overcommitment to 'free trade' (and an't That a scam and a half in its own right) has lead to an overcommitment to dairy and dairy farms being established on land that really isn't suitable to it, resulting in a Lot of extra water being used to irrigate the grass for the cows to eat, and then the excessive cow poo ending up in the waterways and causing problems There... and yeah, the high amount of methane is an issue (a surprisingly high percentage of New Zealand's greenhouse gas emissions, actually, though that's more due to just low population in general resulting in an industrial situation that just makes less total rather than the cows being particularly gassy), but it's generally not the one people take all that seriously or complain about (meanwhile the farmers (as a group, there's always a couple of idiots who don't go along with such things in these cases) do actually put a fair bit of effort into minimising or eliminating the problems described.) Basically, if the focus was on feeding ourselves and exporting the surplus, rather than overspecialising and cranking out as much as possible and then creating a crapload of extra greenyhouse gasses shipping out all the excessive specialised product and Importing everything else, we'd have a LOT less cows, and they'd mostly be on land actually Suitable to cows, and a lot more sheep (as used to be the case... though admittedly, for all that the land was more suitable to it, we were still overspecialising for export, just less so.)
I fucking knew it! I never drank that shit but both my sisters did. I always knew that shit can't be good for you. They tried putting it in my coffee once, but I tasted it immediately. Gross. Remember folks, eggs and milk contain EVERYTHING a baby chicken / a baby cow needs. It's healthy.
The one thing I never understand about these "milks," especially the ones made from nuts, is where the hell is the protein? I mean oats are low in protein, but cashews are not, yet both "milks" have like no protein. So where'd it go?
Honestly, if it had more protein than cow milk I would chug it down even if it tasted like garbage. Since it doesn't AND real milk is cheaper, I'll just stick with that...
Oatly is 2€ and good milk is like 1,7-2€ - per liter. US prices are insane. I never liked the taste of oat based drinks and it tastes way too sweet - and I'm very sensitve when it comes to sweet stuff. I prefer a pea protein based milk substitute, as it trully is almost milk like and you can use it for baking without having the strange oat/soy taste or it gets to watery. Also, no problematic ingredients and zero sugar. This video is really biased, to a level that it edges on lying. Well produced, like most propaganda.
As someone who can't have milk due to severe stomach issues: Oat milk is honestly a meh. I've had it a few times and I don't think it it is worth the price. Here in England, you can purchase 1L of soya milk for roughly 60P. At least it is something that I can have.
You can tell someone doesn't own/use apple products. I've only had a couple apple phones, bought them used. Never had one break on me. Meanwhile i went through 4 flagship samsung phones in the span of 1 single year simply due to them not working anymore. No cracks, no damages, nothing. Just either wont turn on, wont charge or wont connect to anything.
To aid you in tour argument about components that sound bad, all our veggies are grown with rotten wood, food and scraps. Some fertilizers also use animal poop and pee to breakdown and rot the matter that will serve as food to help veggies amd fruits grow. Ammonia can be distilled from piss and it's used in the preparation of many medicines too, etc.
I agree whit you that this may poison people against milk alternatives and that is bad, if you emulsionate some peanut paste in a some water you can have a very cheap and healthy alternative for lactose intolerant people that doesnt cost you half a liver. Its not that replacing milk is bad, is just that the industry sucks ass.
Went and had a look at the oat milk I have. New Zealand has different labling standards, but so far as I can tell, the worst issues mentioned in the video aren't a thing... though I'm not quite sure what to make of the ingredients list reading 'oats (min 9%)' for the second ingredient (the first being water). It's worth considering just what percentage of Regular milk is, in fact, water, though. Particularly skim milk (seriously, most of the time that tastes more like contaminated water than milk.) Interestingly, in baking, rice milk seems to work Better than regular milk, producing results that are both better and more consistent. No idea why, given that Only rice milk seems to have that effect. Also, I think I finally solved a minor mistory: if I pour a bowl of cornflakes, pour oatmilk on it, eat the cornflakes, then drink the oatmilk that's left in the bottom of the bowl? It tastes basically like regular milk. This is Weird, because oat milk straight out of the carton tastes like grain slurry. It's not good. But adding cornflakes is just adding more grain, right? Well, not so much. Cornflakes, one might recall, actually have a fair bit of added sugar. So I'm pretty sure that what's happening is that the oatmilk is leaching the sugar out of the cornflakes, so what's left in the bowl at the end is Sweetened oat milk. I mean, it's still a bit odd that that's all it takes, but at least it makes Some sense now.
Food stuff is a topic I've had to teach myself to avoid. I get so heated, not because "everyone's lying" but "how don't you know?!" Creating shelf stable rapeseed oil(shortening) is a modern scientific miracle. It's cool food-science, but obviously you can't just replace natural fats in their entirety ETC. ETC. ETC. Ad infinitum. Bringing up food stuff with me, is like bringing up politics & religion during a party. The mood gets ruined, no one has fun, and now I'm (deservedly) the asshole because it's so hard for me to stay quite. Modern food science saves so many lives, but nothing is taught.

I was skeptical fairly quick given the rather grandiose claims, but when I noticed that, I dismissed most of the video.
Hi, long time chef with enough experience to be a dietician here. Milk is not bad for you! If you are lactose intolerant, you can drink a type of milk called A2A2 milk, aka lactaid milk. And the best part, the milk is way better quaility than even regular milk.
I'm never drinking oat milk ever again. Not that I ever drank it before, but now that I watch this video, I'm 100% never going to drink this.
Oatly sells so poorly in Sweden they're basically going under too lmao
I get oatmilk for free cos its so expensive noone buys it, n employee get and give them out for free when near expirey 😂
@@holymaggots70 I'd say that's great but don't get sick lol
Lactose Free Milk is the only one i've found to taste sweet, and that's because most brands use Lactase to break it down into Galactose and Glucose which are quite sweet (even then it's not even like a single spoon of sugar per cup sweet)
It also lasts longer!
I dont drink or have milk in stuff a lot, so I always buy Lactose free milk because it lasts waaaay longer.
@@stoffni There maybe more to it than it seems
In my own experience it goes bad faster, but it doesnt curd like regular milk, instead it becomes disgustingly acid in taste
That's more to do with what your brain has registered as a baseline than anything. Regular cows milk Is sweet, the sweetness is just very mild.
Conflicting comment. You say lactose free milk is sweet but then talk about how lactose breaks things down and makes regular milk sweet.
@@Donovarkhallum I said _LacTASE_
Which is an enzyme that breaks down _LacTOSE_ into glucose and galactose. everything from the milk fat
It's also the reason for Lactose intolerance, either your body produces too little, or none at all, and that results in intolerance
Would explain why Starbucks coffee makes me feel like I'm gonna die. To this day I still say, go local.
Starbucks isn’t coffee it’s a cake minus the flour
Just order a black cold brew
I actually try to go for products sweetened with cane sugar - because I at least know what that will do to my body - so seeing them market their product as being free of it is off-putting.
Lol, imagine buying milk for 4,80$. Where I live milk costs maybe 1,70€. And that's the organic stuff.
4 thousands dollars?
4 dollars and 80 cents.@@junebug4004
4.80 for TWO liters. you pay about 1.70 for ONE
and where i live in a village with old ladies still growing cows i can get liter jar for 0.50€
OH, I didn't catch that. Thanks. Just looked it up and the cheaper ones cost around 1€(1,09$) per liter. The average is about 1,35€(1,47$) per liter. That's still a really big difference. @@actuallyKriminell
The simplest way to do the health analysis on foods is to stop buying packaged and processed foods. If your food was brought to you by a corporation, chances are it is bad for you.
I slimmed down from nearly 370 pounds down to 245 in a year by dropping processed foods & drinks. Four years later & my weight still hovers around 240, but I'm tall & shaped like an ox. I can still have carbs & the occasional bit of junk food, but it is an exception rather than the norm.
Processed foods are convenient, but like you said, they're absolutely not gonna be the best option.
While I agree processed dairy (and even organic dairy) is best avoided or kept to a minimum. This guy would report on most fruits and veggies like: _"They contain _*_POTASSIUM!_*_ A substance known to _*_EXPLODE_*_ on contact with water!"_
Regular ol Whole Cow's Milk IS sweet, it's just that most people's tastebuds nowadays are bombarded with so much sugar you can barely taste the sweetness of milk, if you go on Keto or other Carb-Starvation diets, after a few weeks you are going to become hypersensitive to sweetness and you are gonna discover a whole new world of sweet, like a couple drops of honey are enough to sweeten coffee and stuff like that
From normal and "meat" cows milk is sweet, pretty noticeable. But most farmable for milking "milk" cows produce less "fat" and less "sweet" product. It is mild even neutral on sweet side.
6:08 dam. thats still expensive. here 1L carton cost anywhere from 0.90€ to 1.5€ and the more costly ones are some special ones with added vitamins etc
one thing from doing keto for years is that i learned a ton about food, how much garbage they put in the standard american diet and blame it on dumb shit like meat, and how much of the typical things weve been told is bad is actually good and was just a red herring to stay away from going after sugar and corn and vegetable oils. the thing is, the first thing you learn on keto is to stay away from packaged foods including things labeled as keto because theyre mostly just low carb so theres not much money you can make on pushing keto unlike something like vegan where theres so much fake crap you can do with shoving oils and grain together.
Fun fact: i dont know if its used worldwide, but concentrate can be used to mean that the water has been extracted, so you have concentrated dehydrated juice thats completely natural and no additives. Just no water. And once you re-add water its just normal juice.
I seen this "milk" in my country, it is funny how people believe "milk" = milk.
the fun part is the "saves the environment" argument isn't even true, tricky thing is the plants used for these milk/protein substitutes give a low yield of the part that is needed so you need "a lot" to make "a little". if you wanted to replace the current market demand for milk and protein in america alone the land you would need for those crops to fill that demand would take up all of south america (and for anyone that wants to make the argument that soybeans are used as feed for cows, those soybeans are a different strain of soybean that are bilogically engineered to produce higher yields and are safe for cows' consumption but are not fit for human consumption, it would be like substituting lawn grass seed for wheat)
I am really glad that Alana, the original video are showing people how much a scam it is. Their lot of good enzymes in milk too Grate Job Alana ❤❤ your reactions are priceless
You should probably find another video to expose oat milk, this one’s absolute trash.
if the sun decided to throw a fit and fry all our electrics.. and we had to go back to the OLD WAYS of living? the hipsters wouldnt last.. having to drink ACTUAL MILK to sustain themselves.
10:23: I wouldn't call it sweet either, but it has some sweetness hints. And normal milk has about 4,7g/100ml of suger in it. Orange juice has 9,3g/100ml. Coca Cola, at least in Germany, about 10,6g/100ml. Oatly in Germany has 3,4g/100ml of sugar. And only water, oats(10%) and sea salt as ingredients.
OK, try to blend together 900 g of water, 100 g of oats and a few pitches of salt. Then, filter that and tell me how it tastes just like store branded "oatmilk".
Amylase doesn't have to be declared when it's not in the final product. And the 3,4g of sugar have to come from somewhere. You can buy amylase for yourself. Then you can make the same thing Oatly does in Germany and it should taste very similar. I don't really get the point you try to make here. Are you saying I lied about the ingredient list? You can look that up for yourself. @@NimiKhan
So I was trick. They better be glad I'm too lazy to go crazy on these fools.
The funny thing about methane is that it's combustible, so it ends up breaking down into normal old carbon dioxide and water.
Regarding almond milk. We've been making the stuff since the middle ages. Most countries just don't have lent anymore and we invented refridgerators and pasteurization.
15:31 all that matters is dosage. literally everything is bad for you, in a high enough dose. Moderation is more important than what you put in your body.
Have to drag my cows milk from my cold dead hands.
Personally, its a helpful tool for me. I cant really drink much milk. I like to switch the immiation milks i get and oatmilk is just one of those.
I think it is also illegal to market these substitute "milk" drinks as any kind of milk since they don't actually contain any milk. They have to be called oat drinks. Or at least this is the case here in Finland.
I don't think that's true in English-speaking countries because there's a history of using "milk" in other contexts, like milk of magnesia.
@@CruelestChris It's true in every single EU country, including the UK prior to brexit (not sure it it's still the case there): "On June 14, 2017, the European Court of Justice (ECJ) ruled that plant-based products cannot be labeled with dairy names such as "milk" or "butter" even if the plant origin is clearly indicated on the label."
Funny how that is... Yet blood oranges don't contain any blood in them, or coconut cream doesn't contain any cream in it.
Language changes constantly and we call this white liquid that goes well with coffee as milk, same as we call a tube of grounded protein as a sausage.
It's just corporations fighting over their capitalisation of products and nothing more. It's just completely stupid at this point.
@@finniko1995 How is it about corporations fighting? It's corporations doing whatever they can to sell product to consumers, and government organs regulating those corporations so they're not allowed to do anything they want.
Otherwise you could just put orange colored Gatorade in a carton and label it as "orange juice".
@@ThePelitin Well I would totally get your point if it actually applies like this, but I just find it funny how only these new plant based products are targeted and nothing more. You couldn't call a big portion of products on the shelves as their suggested name if that rule applies, since they aren't following the same recipes and ingredients as some other products.
Take sausages for example, since I mentioned that before. There are plenty of sausages on the market that have more flour in them than actual meat. Yet these aren't called as "meat based pastry".
It quite literally is agriculture lobbyists defending their income by any means necessary because they have seen how much popularity the alternatives are getting. You can even read about it in some news articles.
As long as there's no purposeful misleading with the name, there shouldn't be any laws broken. Like if you decide to call your plant based products as oat milk or bean patty.
17:17: I mean what he said could be very much true. And he deliberately said EUROPE. Like I said in another comment, in Germany Oatly only has water, oats and salt in it. (The amylase is probably used too, but as long as it isn't in the final product, you don't have to declare it. But I don't actually know, whether it's used or not.) It's a pretty scummy tactic to equate to different products with the same name.
Ah okay, that checks out then. Thanks for basically confirming it.
Hi neighbor.👋@@Teronix100
What’s the solution then? … Fox milk?
Drink real milk, or make your own almond milk. literally just break up some raw almonds and let them soak in water for a few days. Lightly boil it to get rid of the water and concentrate it if it tastes too watery.
Remember folks: if it ain't from a birthing animal, it ain't milk.
Like I always heard growing up, if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Packaging has a big OAT LY!
on the front in a majority English-speaking country.
They were super honest/upfront with it.
It is a lie about oats. 🤣
Makes me glad I found out I can still drink lactose free milk.
aaand right off the bat, I am remembering that a cup of oat milk digests into the equivilant of a cup of sugar.
16:50 oh the FDA standars for information in products is insane, i live in Chile, we have very good label laws, and the products comming from USA need to be relabeled cause the info those produce have is barely more that what we legally require for pet food... its actually insane.
Yeahh see this is why actual milk is rather better for you than that milk substitute.
Oatly being a scam sounds really similar to Lunchly looking back on this now
I got my eyebrows raised a bit everytime a corporate say "we care about x"
Oatly is sold in Sweden, haven't tasted it but remember smelling it at one time and didn't like the smell.
Thank you for reacting to these videos I'd never watch on my own due to not wanting to benefit their creators!

May the heavens grant Alana unlimited kids
For those who haven't tried, try rice milk. It's the closest to diary milk taste-wise, just watered down.
The "rice vs oak" part isn't the issue here.
notmilk by notco is closer; but they changed the fiber source to corn and now i’m allergic to it!
Now he needs to do one of these on Prime
For people who want alternatives, get a soy milk machine, buy a giant bag of soy beans, dump it in with water, blend and add however much sugar, and it tastes 10x better than store bought soy milk.
And this is why i drink fresh goat milk.
Next time "A novel idea is not necessarily a good one"
15:00 almond milk is kidney stone factory.. oxalate out the wazoo

edit: @12:47 Oh, thank god. Thank you Alana. Yes, This line here. man.
Like my comment on that other food video i say it again.
Reject weird food replacements and kidney stone milk.
And enjoy your coffee and cookies with real milk while watching SmugAlana.
never bought starbucks in my life, will never pay 10 bucks for a coffee, i'm in france ffs, 1 espresso 1 small candy or chocolate treat 1 glass of water less than 3 euros, never ever i'm gonna drink that expensive pisswater.
so true. starbuck too much sugar even in all foreigner countries
Or you can wait until you get home and make your own coffee
Funny how cheap oat milk is to make and it's 4-6 times more expensive at the store than Milk
I get the same feeling about people that use cooking oil in a pan vs a small slice of butter, is butter healthy overall maybe not, but the fats in butter are natural where as cooking oils cause cancer.
I have never in my life heard anyone ever complain about milk being too sweet. What a clown world we live in.
I love this video. Really did opened my mind. I think your title should be SmugAlana the enlightened.

The scam of the nutmilks and wheatmilks
The kitchen I work in literally use Oatly brand "oat milk".
We serve students training to become racing jockeys for racehorses, I really hate the smug sort of attitude they have when having oat milk, as if they're better than anyone for drinking something different
Juice! You have to tell them! Oat milk is JUICE!
Another thing that the oatly guys have gotten in trouble for is using the word "milk" in their advertising and labeling. This might not sound like much but they've been/are being sued over this by DMI (Dairy Management Incorporated) which is a government established non profit org in the US that all US based dairy farmers are legally required to pay into to safeguard the dairy industry so that the government doesn't have to step in and subsidize them again. They do huge amounts of both industry work and advertising specifically for things like milk and cheese and guys like oatly or the almond milk producers take advantage of that advertising by labeling their products as a 'milk' while not contributing to DMI which both hurts the dairy industry and infringes on a bunch of product branding that was established and is backed by the US federal government in order to keep a large sector of our agriculture industry safe.
Yeah I wouldn't trust a channel ran by a dude that would sell his mom for some coin.
That’s it…time for an extended camping trip
remeber kids everything that looks too good to be true then trust you gut and get away from it.
Now I understand why I hated Starbucks coffee when I tried it. It was so insultingly sweet I could not taste anything other than sugar. I barely finished that cup...
it is like all of the products that put gluten free even though they are made with rice, oats, or corn. if you read fine print it says specifically contains no wheat gluten, cus it isn't actually gluten free. if you make something with rice flour it is going to have rice gluten.
Literally gulping down my last glass of delicous oatly right now. Not sure if they are using the same recipe in germany as in the US (due to regulations), but I can live cow's milk just fine.
This is why you should get all of your milk from milkers
The best way to reduce your carbon footprint and have the healthiest thing is to find A small local food market that Source directly from local farmers. Full stop. It's so insanely simple. I really hate the movement painting dairy as evil. Big corporate Forms yes, they kind of suck. But if you find a small local farm, I guarantee you that that farmer puts his cows vet bills before his own health bills. A huge secret that a lot of the people pushing this propaganda like to forget is that cows need to be healthy to give you good milk and to give you good meat, they need to be happy. An unhappy cow gives less milk it gives worse meat.
Ehh, where I live dairy is painted as ... not Evil, but one of the big problems, in part because an overcommitment to 'free trade' (and an't That a scam and a half in its own right) has lead to an overcommitment to dairy and dairy farms being established on land that really isn't suitable to it, resulting in a Lot of extra water being used to irrigate the grass for the cows to eat, and then the excessive cow poo ending up in the waterways and causing problems There... and yeah, the high amount of methane is an issue (a surprisingly high percentage of New Zealand's greenhouse gas emissions, actually, though that's more due to just low population in general resulting in an industrial situation that just makes less total rather than the cows being particularly gassy), but it's generally not the one people take all that seriously or complain about (meanwhile the farmers (as a group, there's always a couple of idiots who don't go along with such things in these cases) do actually put a fair bit of effort into minimising or eliminating the problems described.)
Basically, if the focus was on feeding ourselves and exporting the surplus, rather than overspecialising and cranking out as much as possible and then creating a crapload of extra greenyhouse gasses shipping out all the excessive specialised product and Importing everything else, we'd have a LOT less cows, and they'd mostly be on land actually Suitable to cows, and a lot more sheep (as used to be the case... though admittedly, for all that the land was more suitable to it, we were still overspecialising for export, just less so.)

13:11 Would kitchen salt be a good example, as it can be made by mixing hydrochlorich acid and sodium hydroxide?
I fucking knew it!
I never drank that shit but both my sisters did. I always knew that shit can't be good for you. They tried putting it in my coffee once, but I tasted it immediately. Gross.
Remember folks, eggs and milk contain EVERYTHING a baby chicken / a baby cow needs. It's healthy.
Imagine the blood sugar of some kid after they eat some full of sugar cereal +oat milk .
The one thing I never understand about these "milks," especially the ones made from nuts, is where the hell is the protein? I mean oats are low in protein, but cashews are not, yet both "milks" have like no protein. So where'd it go?
Honestly, if it had more protein than cow milk I would chug it down even if it tasted like garbage. Since it doesn't AND real milk is cheaper, I'll just stick with that...
Oatly is 2€ and good milk is like 1,7-2€ - per liter. US prices are insane. I never liked the taste of oat based drinks and it tastes way too sweet - and I'm very sensitve when it comes to sweet stuff.
I prefer a pea protein based milk substitute, as it trully is almost milk like and you can use it for baking without having the strange oat/soy taste or it gets to watery. Also, no problematic ingredients and zero sugar.
This video is really biased, to a level that it edges on lying. Well produced, like most propaganda.
If the milk didn’t come from a cow I don’t want to drink it
As someone who can't have milk due to severe stomach issues:
Oat milk is honestly a meh. I've had it a few times and I don't think it it is worth the price.
Here in England, you can purchase 1L of soya milk for roughly 60P.
At least it is something that I can have.
I never drink that even before i know about this in Sweden the other in grupp love in there coffee
You can tell someone doesn't own/use apple products. I've only had a couple apple phones, bought them used. Never had one break on me. Meanwhile i went through 4 flagship samsung phones in the span of 1 single year simply due to them not working anymore. No cracks, no damages, nothing. Just either wont turn on, wont charge or wont connect to anything.
In mexico, you cant call anything plant based milk either
Just want something with cereal that won’t make me shit myself or die early
To aid you in tour argument about components that sound bad, all our veggies are grown with rotten wood, food and scraps. Some fertilizers also use animal poop and pee to breakdown and rot the matter that will serve as food to help veggies amd fruits grow.

I legid saw this milk today in the supermarked. And i thought this was some MURICAN shit.
I trust soy milk and soft fluffy fox ears ❤
Make your own. It’s super easy and waaay more healthy than the stuff sold in markets
I agree whit you that this may poison people against milk alternatives and that is bad, if you emulsionate some peanut paste in a some water you can have a very cheap and healthy alternative for lactose intolerant people that doesnt cost you half a liver.
Its not that replacing milk is bad, is just that the industry sucks ass.
Unprocessed milk from a cow and drank very soon has a sweet taste to it. It is mild tho
Never heard of oatly till now, lol
Went and had a look at the oat milk I have. New Zealand has different labling standards, but so far as I can tell, the worst issues mentioned in the video aren't a thing... though I'm not quite sure what to make of the ingredients list reading 'oats (min 9%)' for the second ingredient (the first being water).
It's worth considering just what percentage of Regular milk is, in fact, water, though. Particularly skim milk (seriously, most of the time that tastes more like contaminated water than milk.)
Interestingly, in baking, rice milk seems to work Better than regular milk, producing results that are both better and more consistent. No idea why, given that Only rice milk seems to have that effect.
Also, I think I finally solved a minor mistory: if I pour a bowl of cornflakes, pour oatmilk on it, eat the cornflakes, then drink the oatmilk that's left in the bottom of the bowl? It tastes basically like regular milk. This is Weird, because oat milk straight out of the carton tastes like grain slurry. It's not good. But adding cornflakes is just adding more grain, right?
Well, not so much. Cornflakes, one might recall, actually have a fair bit of added sugar. So I'm pretty sure that what's happening is that the oatmilk is leaching the sugar out of the cornflakes, so what's left in the bowl at the end is Sweetened oat milk.
I mean, it's still a bit odd that that's all it takes, but at least it makes Some sense now.
I just drink whole milk now and real butter. No more margarine for me. Oat milk always sucked.
Food stuff is a topic I've had to teach myself to avoid. I get so heated, not because "everyone's lying" but "how don't you know?!" Creating shelf stable rapeseed oil(shortening) is a modern scientific miracle. It's cool food-science, but obviously you can't just replace natural fats in their entirety ETC. ETC. ETC. Ad infinitum.
Bringing up food stuff with me, is like bringing up politics & religion during a party. The mood gets ruined, no one has fun, and now I'm (deservedly) the asshole because it's so hard for me to stay quite. Modern food science saves so many lives, but nothing is taught.
