So to answer some of the questions here:
1) I'm fairly healthy. All readings from blood test within limit: blood pressure, triglyceride, cholesterol, etc. Maybe some minor vit D deficiency but that's not really related to my diet.
2) I mainly eat it because of the taste, can't really finish a huge bowl myself usually, so for example, I'll get the Safeway Deli's soup in a plastic container (12oz?) then just pour like 3 table spoon on rice to microwave together. Not really a lot to worry about.
3) Want to see if I can incorporate some of my stuff that I usually eat already as an academic study to see how it taste, not really having any dairy or butter problem. I just don't want to go all out and buy everything then only eat a little bit, then leave the rest to spoil.
4) I don't like oat milk, but I love soy milk for the taste. I also have half a can of spam left so I might use thinly sliced spam to crisp up the soup and grease it up a bit.
5) Using different ingredients is a way to help me understand how each ingredient changes the taste of the resulting food. Sure I can follow the recipe to the dot just try to see some what ifs. My suspicion is without enough cream and butter the "chowder" may just taste like diluted mash potatoes with spam and clam inside. It may not taste bad but it won't be the same for sure.
6) Have been probably eating this twice a year or so, but if it works I may cook it once a week (12 oz for 5 days to mix with rice).
