My oat milk gymnastics:

• Shamefully ask for oat milk
• Nobody cares but I feel weak for being unable to handle standard milk any more
• Why can’t I have soy? It tastes bad but it’s more common
• Wonder if the people behind me are judging me for asking for long winded flat white
• Wonder if I’m holding up other people’s orders because the barista has to clean out the milk jug to clean it between milk and oat juice
• taste it and then go “I guess it’s not so bad”
• small relief knowing it probably can’t be off unlike the few times I’ve had sour milk
• coffee still makes me go to the bathroom, just less violently
