'Plant-Milk Boston' asks us to enable coffee drinkers who cannot and/or won't drink cow's milk dairy products with delicious, appealing, and non-harmful plantmilks - specifically those that taste great when added to coffee.

Many people are lactose-intolerant, and NOT providing lactose-free coffee creamers is a form of discrimination.  Boston has NO SHORTAGE of lactose-intolerant residents, workers, or visitors.  Boston also serves very large volumes of coffee, and many coffee drinkers use creamers.  The solution - the simple solution - is plantmilks.

Plantmilks are becoming very popular - sometimes for need (dairy intolerance, etc.) sometimes for taste reasons, sometimes health and ethical choices.

Plantmilks and nondairy creamers are highly affordable, and portion controlled soymilk is also available.

Some folks cannot buy coffee because they don't drink animal-derived 'milks' and whiteners.

2020 is time to strongly 'nudge' - encourage, urge, maybe even incentivize and give points to - eateries that serve coffee to also serve plantmilks and nondairy creamers, preferably (a good) unsweetened unflavored OATMILK (most popular) or soymilk, all-around practical choices for a plantmilk, although many now prefer openly almond milk to oatmilk or soymilk).  All three could be made available in cost-effective ways that don't risk spoilage or other waste.  Further, older plantmilks (not yet soured) can be used in food preparation recipes in place of animal-derived milks, as in baked goods.

With wider adoption, the prices for the restaurateur and the individual consumer in the grocery will drop considerably.  Restaurant suppliers will be able to lower their prices as volume rises for plantmilk and nondairy creamer consumption.

Adding plantmilks as 'a new item' may be a very low cost way to make the menu more 'fun' and enjoyable to current customers while attracting some new diners.

We would like a Greater Boston and a New England where anyone who wants to drink plantmilks here could be able to get plantmilks and nondairy creamers affordably here in restaurants, coffee shops, groceries, convenience stores, schools, and institutions and workplaces.

In addition, restaurateurs and their staffers should publicly announce the importance of making PLANTMILKS available - as a promotional campaign.

Boston would be a great metropolis for this INCLUSION effort for those who cannot drink dairy products. ONE SIMPLE ADJUSTMENT includes among potential coffee drinkers all those who cannot drink the mammary secretions of bovines in their coffee.

Boston could easily 'use the bully pulpit' to model drinking unsweetened, unflavored oatmilk, soymilk, cashewmilk, or any other comparable plantmilk that goes well with Boston's seemingly uncounted coffee shops and restaurants.

Adding plantmilks as 'a new item' can be a win-win-win arrangement for the City, the restaurants, and their diners and potential customers. Adding plantmilks as 'a new item' may be a very low cost way to make the menu more 'fun' and enjoyable to current customers while attracting some new diners.

With wider adoption and perhaps with bulk buying power negotiation, the prices for the restaurateur and the individual consumer in the grocery would or could or should drop considerably.  Restaurant suppliers will be able to lower their prices as volume rises for plantmilk consumption.

Adding plantmilks as 'a new item' may be a very low cost way to make the menu more 'fun' and enjoyable to current customers while attracting some new diners.

Serve Plantmilks in *ALL* Eateries, Institutions, Schools, Offices, Worksites!
