   All plant milks I have tried  have a sweet taste- either undertone or   
   overwhelming- that makes them unappealing to me.  It  means I'd have   
   to adjust any recipes that call for milk. I am too old and lazy for   
   that.   
      
   I also like and tolerate cow's milk and do not really want a   
   substitute for it so it works out well.   
      
   If, however, I were looking for some plant-based sweet liquid for a   
   special dessert or smoothie, I'd have no problem. In other words, I am   
   not against the stuff, just against using it as a sub for cow's milk.
