In a dairy barn full of content cows, autonomous robots handle milking, feeding, and cleaning, allowing farmers more flexibility and improving cow welfare. With robots, cows produce more milk and more comfortable lives. Could this be the future of sustainable farming?
No. Go vegan if you actually care about animals
For real, this has nothing to do with animal welfare. The cows still get forcefully impregnated every so often and have their calves taken away, just so you can drink their milk. Supermarkets are full of tasty plant milk variants, yet most people still see the need to let cows suffer instead.
Oat is GOAT
(The acronym, not the animal)
I am 100% not a vegan. I eat meat and cheese and eggs and pretty much all animal products. So hear me when I say I regularly grab oat milk when I’m at the store.
It’s not just the best milk substitute, it is better than regular milk.
I evaluate basically all my food with what I call “hotdog math”. my wife hates it. my local gas station sells hotdogs at 2/$1. the free toppings can push the calories count near 550, but I know nothing comes close, so I round down to 500. milk beats oatmilk on hotdog math, and carries a wider diversity of nutrients, to boot.
Cow milk is usually only cheaper because of subsidies, otherwise it would be much more expensive.
I don’t know how this can be verified, nor does it matter at the point of sale
