Arguably one of the best dairy alternative for coffee especially at this price point. It contains sunflower oil which may not be suitable for some people.

      Think Amazon only does the special by a dozen

    • IIRC, last time they didn't pm woolies

    • Just checked - Amazon doesn't PM this one

  • Vitasoy halfing the price of oat and almond but not soy?

    What's up with the price of soymilk at the moment? Just about doubled in a year.

        From ChatGPT:

        Estrogen in Dairy vs Soy
        Dairy
        • Contains natural animal estrogens (estrone, estradiol), which are steroid hormones.
        • These estrogens are fat-soluble, with higher concentrations in full-fat dairy products (e.g., butter, cream, cheese).
        • Animal estrogens are biologically active in humans, but the amounts in dairy are generally too low to have significant hormonal effects for most people at normal consumption levels.
        Soy
        • Contains phytoestrogens (like genistein and daidzein), plant-derived compounds that mimic estrogen but are much weaker than human or animal estrogens.
        • Soy phytoestrogens bind to estrogen receptors, often with mixed effects: they can act as weak estrogens or block stronger estrogens, depending on the context.
        • At typical dietary intake levels (e.g., 1-2 servings per day), soy is not linked to feminizing effects or hormone disruption in men or women.
        Key Difference
        • Dairy estrogens are actual steroid hormones, which have a stronger and more direct biological effect, though present in very small amounts.
        • Soy phytoestrogens are weaker and behave differently in the body, depending on the dose and individual hormonal balance.

            @YoursTruly: That's not a study, it's a single case of correlation in 2008.

            Do you drink beer?

              @besttechadvisor: Ah…The classic swoop in by the numbers I see.

              Studies have been inconsistent, and turn out to be wrong before being revised/ updated/ corrected for the majority of the time.

              Study or no study - Check your body on how it responds, not some study that’s followed without question and blindly at that - like it’s some gospel or a definitive path.

              Do you drink beer?

              Should I be?
              Shall I add the smoke as well?

                Yes, that's how science works - by the numbers.

                Studies have been inconsistent, and turn out to be wrong before being revised/ updated/ corrected for the majority of the time.

                Yes, studies with thousands of participants can be proven wrong, but they're proven wrong wrong far less often than a case with a single participant.

                Study or no study - Check your body on how it responds, not some study that’s followed without question and blindly at that - like it’s some gospel or a definitive path.

                No disagreement there.

                Should I be drinking beer? Shall I add the smoke as well?

                No, but I don't see you commenting on the many alcohol deals about the estrogenic effects of hops even though it's far more estrogenic.

                Smoking is more hormone disrupting as well.

                As is dairy, see above.

                Point being that you're being selective/paranoid about soy and all the Robert Paulson's of this country are mostly ending up that way from alcohol, dairy, smoking, Finasteride, etc and not from a glass of 14% soy milk.

                  @besttechadvisor: Nice…long wall of texts

                  Seems that you’re triggered, going by the zoomed-in 1-by-1 responses that do very little.

                  • @YoursTruly:

                    mate, you were triggered by soy milk

                      Read my original post again - or don’t.

                      Thanks again for your text. But enough now lol

    Used to get the pink unsweetened almond milk.

    Would always split in coffee.

    Vitasoy unsweetened doesnt and tastes a better.

    Tried this the other week. Not a fan for in coffee - tastes too oaty for my liking. But good price, might be okay for other uses.

    I rate the milky almond and oat so highly. They froth really well without having to pay the premium price for “barista” milks. Plus they taste great
