I'm a little bitter that my wife's Better Than Milk foams better than my whole milk; it makes better-looking latte's, with perfect foam.

Comes in boxes exactly like that, which made me think of it.

The barista oat milk one also foams really well. The additives work like crazy.

We really liked the flavor of Elmhurst, but it doesn't foam at all, so for mocchas I use Better Than Milk. We tried the Elmhurst Barista blend and it tasted... bad. As in, it had gone bad. Elmhurst sent us a replacement, but that tasted just as awful. So I've been avoiding those; maybe other brands would be better.

My wife has an autoimmune disease that's triggered by a laundry list of random foods - from cabbage and carrots, to hazelnuts, to any dairy product. She can eat any meat; it's truly bizarre. But luckily, oat milks are OK, and they work well in recipes and don't add any odd flavor, like coconut milk does.

Anyway, Better Than Milk is easy to find, it foams spectacularly, and it tastes good. I'll try their barista blend, though; thanks for the recommendation.
