Breakfast suggestions? (lemmy.sdf.org)

I'm an Indian guy in my twenties, living in US. I used to have cornflakes and the like for breakfast, but recently I turned lactose intolerant. I hate cornflakes without the milk.

There are a lot of breakfast options coming from my culture, but I need something that doesn't take time to make. I'm a lazy bum and can barely make it in time to my university as it is. If anyone has ideas, please let me know.

What kind? I tried soy milk and didn't like it.

there's a multitude of other brands and types of non dairy milk, all slightly different, try a few of them. and try them in cereal not just straight. I don't care for any kind of milk on its own, but cashew or oat milk in cereal is great.

There's just straight up lactose free real milk. It's milk with the enzyme we don't have, already in it.

That sounds great. Someone else suggested Lactaid somewhere up in the comments.

Brands differ country to country so I have no idea what you have, but no harm in trying it

I used to buy Lactaid milk, which I liked ok and it didn't bother me, but it was hard for me to find it in a size smaller than a gallon. I found that I really enjoy the Fairlife brand milk and it comes in a half gallon size. It is also lactose free, and usually stays good for a really long time compared to regular milk.

There’s a big variance in taste across soy milks. There’s only two brands I’ll tolerate and I’m pretty sure they both come from the same factory.
