According to Lara, Beatrice is hogging the fridge and wasting her money with her almond, soy, coconut and oat milks. But is Lara just stirring?

Having five different kinds of milk open is ridiculous. Beatrice isn’t even lactoseThe world has gone milk-mad in my opinion. No one needs such a vast selection of options for every type of beverage, but that’s exactly what we’ve got in our fridge at home. I live with my little sister, Beatrice, and she’s obsessed with having milk for every occasion. Almond, soya, coconut, oat and some flavoured and barista ones, too.

Beatrice is a bit coffee-obsessed and I think the milk habit feeds into that. She saved up for a barista-style coffee machine and asked our parents for a coffee grinder before. I think it’s all a bit over the top. What happened to a normal cup of coffee with a dash of cow’s milk? Beatrice needs to relax on milk-buying and just stick to one or two. It’s more economical, and saves space. Beatrice has just started working after graduation. She should be saving some of her cash instead of frittering it away on fancy drinks.Coffee is a highlight of my day, and everyone my age enjoys different milks. Lara needs to chill out, or drink. I have oat milk for my morning coffee, coconut milk for iced coffee, almond milk for tea, and soya milk just because it’s good for everything.

I do keep a lot of different milks open in the fridge because I don’t know which one I’ll need at any given time. They rarely go to waste. And the ones in the cupboard don’t take up that much space – Lara’s exaggerating there. I buy plant-based milks in bulk as it’s cheaper.I’m not lactose-intolerant but so what? Everyone my age dabbles in different milks. It’s good to consume less dairy, whatever your diet. Plant-based milks are healthier and generally taste better, too.
