I've been eating oatmeal most mornings for more than 10 years. I love the texture, I find warm breakfast comforting, and I'm not shy about throwing on all kinds of toppings — like fruits, nuts, seeds, or chocolate — to keep things interesting. Until recently though, I'd always made my oatmeal with almond milk.
It was a habit that started in college for me. Almond milk was relatively new, and wellness-focused media outlets all seemed to be shunning dairy for reasons I'm now fairly sure were more based on speculation than actual science. But I went with the trend and jumped in, picking up my carton of almond milk on each grocery trip. I thought it tasted fine, and never really felt my oatmeal was lacking because of it. But I recently broke this decade-old habit — and my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner.
