P... p... pea milk

Written by 

They say it’s never been easier to avoid dairy, thanks to an ever-expanding array of plant-based ‘milk’ -- rice, soy, hemp, oat, coconut, almond, macadamia, hazelnut and cashew.

But nut or soy allergies prevent some people from drinking these. Women may be concerned about the estrogen-like compounds in soy. And such beverages may lack certain vitamins and protein.

Enter pea milk, the newest non-dairy beverage on the block. It’s vegan, nut free, soy free, lactose free and gluten free. It’s better for the environment than almond milk, said to waste water during production. And it has more protein and calcium than other alternatives.
