“The koala was probably my favorite, but that was for sentimental reasons and not taste. They were all pretty similar to be honest.” How? “Quite musky, a bit funky and a bit metallic.” Mmm, musky. “The best word would be pungent—definitely not enjoyable.”
Would he ever use koala milk again, then? “I guess if I was to use any of them again I’d try to dilute the taste with cream, maybe some vanilla. Just anything to lose that strong animal flavor.”
I was a strict vegan for 5+ years (I still mostly cook vegan and vegetarian at home), and as I’ve become more flexible in my diet, I’ve been surprised at how off-putting animal products are - particularly dairy has a disgusting animal smell / taste to them that I don’t like. Low quality / more refined dairy products actually taste better to me because they are less likely to have that animal taste, but I still don’t like it as much as vegan alternatives most of the time (like, I strongly prefer vegenaise to real sour cream, for example).
And it probably tastes nasty bc of their diet
apparently it has a pungent musky animal taste:
