    Almond milk is lower calorie so the better option for me!

    I heard from a very very well qualified nutritionist that the only reason to have almond milk is if you are lactose intolerant. Plus normal milk is so much cheaper!!

    Or you like it better.
    Or the lower calorie value appeals to you
    Or you don't want to consume animal products

    I love unsweetened almond milk on my cereal and in my smoothies. I love skim milk with my cookies.

    I switched to almond milk some time ago. I drink it straight and use it to cook my cream of wheat. It comes down to personal taste. The "original" almond milk also contains less sugar than cow milk but I find the unsweetened almond milk not all that tasty.

    Skim milk is a better choice for protein than store bought almond milk which is mostly water. I make my own almond milk since I'm off dairy. But, if you are happy and healthy stay the course.
