    This seems like a good idea, compared to how other non-dairy milks like almond and soy are produced. It would be nice if this made it's way to Ireland. Has anyone seen it in any specialist shops over here yet?
    My only issue with non-dairy milks is the exorbitant prices that are charged, this pea milk is $5/48oz, which is roughly €4.50/L. Even other non-dairy milks like almond or coconut are twice or sometimes three times the price of milk! Has anyone ever tried to make their own almond milk? It surely couldn't be that hard, just blend some almonds to powder, and add water I'd imagine.

    The cheapest non-dairy milk option I've found is Tesco's soy milk, but I'm not sure it's a good idea for men to drink soy milk often. Both sides of the argument for the possibly negative effects of phyto-estrogen found in soy are equally convincing, but it's hard to know which side to believe.
