The non-dairy “milk” aisle has gotten a lot more crowded lately. Almond milk, in particular, has seen a recent rise in popularity, though not everyone’s on board. Some health experts say that almond milk isn’t a good alternative to cow’s milk because it may contain additives and it lacks protein. There has also been concern that almond farms are a drain the water supply, particularly because California, where all commercially-grown almonds are farmed, is going through an epic drought. However, according to the Almond Board of California, while almond farms make up 13 percent of all California farmland, they require only 9 percent of the H2O designated for agricultural purposes.
