    What on earth is carrageenan?!

    Carrageenan, an additive to many food products, has been flagged by scientists and doctors as a harmful substance that causes ulcers, inflammation, and other gastrointestinal problems. This chart showing how to avoid the thickening agent carrageenan, which may have links to gastrointestinal illnesses, is courtesy of cornucopia.org.

    Carrageenan is actually derived from red seaweed.

    Just want to say that it's actually used to treat ulcers, it hasn't been shown that it causes them from what I've been reading.

    I use Almond Breeze because there's usually a sale or coupon where we shop. My husband and I go through about 4 cartons a week, so price is definitely my main priority! But I have tried the Silk and enjoyed the taste and texture more than others I've tried.

    yup thats mee. and its delicious. The chocolate one is awesome in my smoothie. I also like Silk soy milk too. But I find the almond milk to usually be more cost effective.
