Thanks for listening and thanks for supporting our friends and neighbors in the food-service industry!

For generations, people have been told that, when it comes to nutrition, there is nothing better than milk.

Oh, how times have changed!

As people become more aware of the environmental impacts of the dairy industry and as food-related allergies continue to grow, many are seeking alternatives that emulate the udder-ly satisfying taste of milk.

In the past, we have talked about options that range from the Coconut Collaborative’s coconut milk and Ayo’s almond milk to Nutty Lifes’ cashew-baed milk and even Banana Wave’s non-dairy banana milk. We have also enjoyed Schmilk Chocolate’s milk-free milk chocolate and Vegan Rob’s dairy-free cheese puffs. And while these and other organizations offer amazing alternatives, none of them have been bold enough to make the claim of being better than milk.

Today, however, one is being so bold!

Better Than Milk offers not just one alternative, but an entire menu that includes almond, oat, and rice drinks, all of which are made with Italian spring water and all of which are organic, vegan, Parve, gluten-free and impressively delicious! There is even a rice drink with added calcium and another with sustainably-harvested hazelnut that is great in coffee or cereal.

While the taste may be most important, the environmental impact (or lack thereof) is important to many people these days as well (especially with the 50thanniversary of Earth Day coming up April 22). Better Than Milk uses less water than traditional milk and does not release methane into the atmosphere. Even the shelf-stable recyclable packaging is better for the earth and can be recycled again into birdhouse and other environment-supporting projects that make each box fun and functiional.

While there are many great milk aletrnatives out there, few offer as wide a range and as international a set of sustainable sources as Better Than Milk.
