Dairy, yes or no?

I think it depends on the person whether dairy works for them. If you are lactose intolerant then you can drink lactose milk (treated with an enzyme) or substitute almond/soy/cashew or another milk. I've been using more cashew and almond milk lately because I like it and it is lower in calories so helps me to stick to my calorie goal for weight loss.0

Although your body may not have any adverse reactions to dairy I would not endorse the consumption of it. Unless it is local grass fed; commercial cow milk is full of products and hormones who knows what their affects are. I would be very careful and attentive to ingredients and added fillers.0

Not shocking. My husband and I are both of good mixed northern/western European stock and neither of us nor our horde of beast children have any problems with dairy.

Almond milk: cereals, coffee drinks
Soy milk: Mac-n-cheese, baked recipes
Rice milk: GODIEINAFIRE0 -
Dairy industries have done very bad things to cows in the past and present (I'm not a vegan, but don't drink dairy for this reason) There are other options like: almond milk, cashew milk, coconut milk. Try those before switching back. Don't forget just because one brand doesn't taste good doesn't mean it's not good product for others. (for almond milk don't get the skinny bottle since it's not a good flavor)0

Anyone out there with 1. facts about the true evil powers of dairy or 2. product recommendations for substitutes that won't make me gag?
I really miss my afternoon Greek yogurt, and my cheddar with crackers with my wine. :-) Thanks!
There is nothing wrong with dairy at all, nor is there anything wrong with soy. If your gut doesn't like one or the other, then that is good enough reason to eliminate those foods. But, no food is good or bad in and of itself.0 -

I recently switched to vanilla almond milk and I love it!!! Oh and there's even almond milk/coconut milk frozen desserts (like ice cream bars). My digestive system is very happy!
Yep. Try Steve's chocolate salted carmel, which is non dairy. It Soooooo good.0 -

@rabbitjb - I do indeed scone and cake. I pancake too. I even cottage cheese. But I don't buttermilk. God kills a kitten every time somebody drinks that nasty, clotted, sour stuff.0 -

It's an ingredient not a drink...who on earth drinks buttermilk? Is that even a thing?

Definitely NOT a thing for me. My dad used to chug the stuff, made me throw up in my mouth a little bit just watching.
As an ingredient, I'm down though.0 -

Trivia: in the middle ages, almond milk was often used instead of dairy milk because it kept better (and could be used during Lent).
I like almond milk and also dairy, though as ingredients rather than as stand-alone drinks.0 -

It's a drink here in Germany (I'm in Germany this week) - and even comes flavoured - less sour. More like a thick lassi.0
