OK, so it's not a new food - I've been hearing all about it on forums like this for a few years now. I finally saw it in the store today and bought some (natural vanilla flavor) I've never really cared for soy milk and this kinda reminds me of it - BUT... there's just something about it that keeps making me want more! I think I like it :ohwell: Not sure though (I better go have another sip)

I bought the unsweetened - is the sweetened better? I was kinda trying to save calories.

    added sweeteners are NEVER better for you...once your mouth gets "clean" of that...you will wonder why you ever ate it in the first place.....and almond is better than soy....good move W

    Do you not like skim milk?

    Hell, I'm still waiting for the fat-free double-chocolate milk!

    I use the Blue Diamond Almond Breeze Unsweetened Vanilla and I love it. It is great in oatmeal, or any cereal cold or hot and I like it to take with my vitamins and minerals before I go to bed sometimes. I do not buy regular milk anymore unless I need it for a particular recipe like a quiche or something. I do not like things sweet so I did not like the sweetened one when I bought it by mistake one day. I have tried another brand can't remember the name and I didn't like it as well and it doesn't come in unsweetened where I shop. :flowerforyou:

    Skim milk is what I usually use and I like it just fine. I just wanted something different - the vanilla flavor sounded good to me.
