- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.

I also enjoy the occasional oatmilk latte but recently was reading something about how oats have all sorts of pesticides that can make their way into the milk
And dairy cows are shot up with antibiotics and hormones. Gotta pick your poison.
yeah thats true, best bet is to research the brands of oatmilk you get to see if they are better or worse
I don't know if it's the same outside Europe, but you could get certified organic
Is there an agricultural product that you eat that does not contain pesticides in some quantity?
Probably not but something like oatmilk could be consumed daily which i guess is where the problem comes in
So you eat nothing else but animal products daily....? What you read reeks of fear-mongering with a good dose of "don't think about it" thrown in, which clearly worked on you.
Yeah I guess it was only two brands after I looked it up again
As compared to onions, garlic, potatoes, bread, cereals, or fruit? I’d put adding 4 oz of oatmilk pretty low on our pesticide exposure list.
Shoot, you should look up how American garlic’s been produced for the past few decades. It’s really disturbing and likely introducing pharmaceuticals back into human foods.
