Went shopping with a friend recently (you know who you are and I know you are reading, heheh) and somehow this ended up in both of our groceries...

All I can say is. OH. MY. This thing is DELICIOUS! Gulped it down in two days flat. Needless to say, I won't be buying it any more because if I did I won't fit through my flat door in approximately a week or maybe less, who knows...

    I WANT to like soymilk, but the only way I've been able to enjoy it is with thoroughly unhealthy amounts of sugar added to it.

    But it already has sugar - organic cane sugar and vanilla... Maybe you haven't tried this brand? I can almost swear they put some addictive drug in it because it made me walk all the way to the grocery store directly from work in the horrible muddly slush - before I could shake its influence off and double back home.

    If you saw someone bundled up in a snowcoat swearing at all the puddles running about in circles around Delaware and Elmwood today evening, it was me. And trying to avoid buying another box of the above was the primary reason for the craziness.

    I've been making soy chais. F Spot and their $5 pricetag! I really don't think I'd ever pour this stuff over cereal, however. I'm not so much of a non-dairy nut that I can't enjoy a little lowfat milk.

    Soy milk + Cinnamony oatmealish stuff* = Heaven

    • I think some Kashi stuff meets the criteria. Pity, I hate the sugar in cereal enough to avoid all cereal. But really, if you eat cinnamony cereal, you need to try the combo. I think they would go smashingly well together!

    I drink close to 2 gallons of milk every week to get the requisite amount of calcium, protein and fat-soluble vitamins in my diet. I am not lactose-intolerant or overly convinced about the apparent ill-effects of milk - so however much I like this soymilk, getting hooked to a non-dairy product like this is a bit of a concern.

    This particular brand of soymilk is equivalent to 3% milk. However, the calcium in it is supplemented calcium carbonate - not the best bioavailable form of calcium. The protein in it is a complete protein but I am not sure how it stacks up in comparison to the animal-sourced protein from milk - I am guessing not very well.
