@capnjack I am looking at plain Greek yogurt that has 7 grams of sugar per serving and too good yogurt which 13 gms per serving and actually tastes good.
Oat milk also varies widely in gms of sugar per serving. Planet Oat milk has only 3gms of sugar per serving. Far less than milk and also other oat milks. Secondly at our age we don’t need the sugar and fat in regular milk.
All smoothies are not created equal.
Read the labels.

@daveshaw Oat "milk" is just another processed food product. We DO need fats in our diet, and animal fat (e.g., from milk) is the best source, health-wise. And as for a source of protein, I'll take 8g. in a cup of real milk vs. 3g. in a cup of oat "milk". When I lived a better life, we had raw milk from cows we milked ourselves; the only processing we did was to strain the milk from the bucket through cheesecloth or a cloth diaper into the gallon jug - then waited an hour or so for 1-2" of cream to rise to the top!

@daveshaw I am still waiting for feedback if anyone has tried my smoothie recipe.
Surely someone has tried it by now.
A great way to get protein and it tastes great.
I welcome any feedback.
