It was the next obvious place.
Does this mean we’re going to start breeding cockroaches for breast size?
we’ll have to start calling them titroaches.
I’m holding out for boobjobroahes.
Pretty sure there’s a fallout mod for that…
They have to kill the mothers. It’s nowhere near a practical food. One estimate suggested you’d need around a thousand roaches to get about 100 grams of crystals. The more realistic idea scientists floated was sequencing the genes behind the protein and producing it with yeast. 😬
I mean if it’s artificially made I’d try it
producing it with yeast. 😬
That’s how we do everything.
I’d support killing a thousand roaches. For science.
Many people just support the killing without the science, but the thought of having to do that instead of milking the teets kills my roach dairy dreams.
I’ll just drink four times as much milk.
Just drink evaporated milk.
Horchata ftw
Just drink evaporated milk.
I’ve tried, but it’s gone by the time I get a glass!
Theyre trying to steal my morning gallon and i wont have it.
GOMAD.
Don’t tell this to RFK Jr.
Too late, he’s balls deep already.
Mandatory for all public school meals if they want funding. RFK Jr milks the roaches himself to ensure the highest nutritional content.

Roaches have nipples? Greg, I’m talking to you.
How do you milk them?
Think milk made in the same manner as almond milk or soymilk
Gotta suck on that cock
with you on that
Okay so… One species of cockroach DOES produce “milk” but its the Pacific beetle cockroach (Diploptera punctata)
They secrete the “milk” into the brood sack (uterus-like pouch housing embryos).
Yummy
The worst part is it might be legit yummy.
The scientists that tested it can have it all for themselves, I’ll even give them a free pass to lord it over us cow milk drinking peons.
Three words: Roach Crème fraise
Creem Freeeeeeeeesh
Cockroach Creem Freesh!!
Iced roach cream made into a roach milkshake using even more roach milk, topped with whipped roach cream.
why bother when oat milk is best milk anyways
The production of oat milk doesn’t involve animal abuse so I’ll never drink it. Yuck!
Peamilk is better imo but nobody stocks it. I imagine something that sounds like “pee milk” is hard to market though to be fair.
Ever since I tried pea-based protein powder I’ve come to think that peas don’t make good drinks. Maybe I should reconsider…
You technically drink split pea soup, and that stuff is pretty good
never seen any but now im interested in trying it
There used to be a brand called “Ripple,” and it was pretty tasty. IDK if it’s still available
I just wish it weren’t so expensive…
Oat milk just tastes like strained porridge ._. And I’m pretty sure that’s essentially what it is. Might as well eat the porridge tbh.
Soya milk is the best.
Can you cook with oat milk like you can regular milk? Like sub it in for sauces, or gravies, or whatever?
Absolutely, you just need to account for missing fat if the recipe calls for a significant quantity. I just toss in some extra vegetable oil to compensate.
Yep! Usually ratio needs a bit of tweaking for the recipe but it works for things ive tried
By itself, it’s not noticeably different than water. The flavor is subtle enough that anything will overpower it. It lacks (but not entirely) viscosity.
Coconut milk makes a superior gravy texture as long as the gravy is strong enough to hide the coconut. You can make sawmill gravy out of coconut, but you’ll need to add garlic, salt and pepper to hide the coconut.
None of the _____ milks properly work with eggs.
Cashew milk has a great mouthfeel but separates when heated.
All that said:
The plant-based heavy whipping cream you can get from MOM’s Organic Market will absolutely work in sauces, gravies and even whipped cream. but it’s full of stabilizers to make it happen (which i’m find with personally)
it’s not noticeably different than water.
That’s kind of what I was thinking. I’ve only had it a couple times though. Real milk thickens up and absorbs the flavors of the other ingredients when it’s heated. Didn’t seem like that would work well with the nut milks but I haven’t tried it so I asked. Others have said it works fine though so idk… maybe I’ll just get some and see what happens.
My wife has a late-in-life diagnosed cow’s milk allergy. I’ve been experimenting with alternatives for 18 years.
There are often a small handful of substitutes that work for specific dishes. A vegan place near me makes absolutely banging DF mac and Cheese, Daiya flavored cheesecakes are 70% of what a real cheesecake is. None of the substitutes are catch all, most aren’t even catch-multi.
Country Crock (or many other brands) DF whipping cream is the closest sub I can find for things, but you have to be careful, it has a subtle sweetness in it that messes with things you don’t want sweet.
I’m stick to oat thanks. You keep that.
Imagine how many cock roaches you need to milk to fill a glass
Just get a few fallout ones.
MMMMM radroach milk, tasty.
Almost sounds like we’d need an entire farm. Imagine the horrors of something like that
(Who remembers that banger)
Holy shit Joe’s Apartment recognition in the wild? Never thought I’d see the day
A childhood classic for me
Yeah, how about no
