The following text is from a fictitious personal blog.
[1] In recent years, many people have turned from dairy
milk to plant-based milks, such as soy or almond milk,
with the hope that they will be drinking a more nutrisious
product. [2] The use of plant-based milks is widespread
enough that there is substantial value to questioning this
assumption: Is the use of such products truly healther?
[3] Aparently so. [4] I have seen data on U.S. News and
World Report that fortified soy milk contains as much
protein and calcium as cow's milk, and less sugar. [5]
Speaking only for myself, this comes as a substantial
frustration: I strongly prefer the smooth and familiar
taste of dairy to its pungent and sometimes oddly
textured plant-based counterparts. [6] Frankly, I highly
doubt that these data are true.
