I prefer Almond milk! It's amazing. Plus win on low calories and high calcium.
I don't mind Soy either but am not sure if smart since I have a hypothyroid?
My husband drinks Coconut milk and 's it.
Cow milk makes me GAG!0 -
I switched to soy decades ago because I've never cared for cow's milk. Almond milk is pretty good too, but I'm so used to soy now that I mainly stick with that. I don't drink a lot of any type of milk though. Usually just a cup of soy milk for breakfast.
I keep canned skim milk (cow) for cooking.0 -
Ocarina, I would stay away from soy if you are hypothyroid. I'm not an expert, but the reading I have done says to stay away from soy. Something about it interfering with the synthroid or whatever replacement they have you on.
I also recently found out that we should take our medication with a full glass of water on an empty stomach first thing in the morning. Hot liquids within 30 minutes of taking meds, especially coffee, will inhibit absorption of the medication. I've been on meds since infancy, and no one ever told me that!0 -
Not a soy fan because of GMOs.
I use unsweetened vanilla almond milk for oatmeal and smoothies. The only time I drink cow milk is the chocolate variety for a recovery drink on days I lift heavy.0 -
Plain unsweetened almond milk.
I'm lactose intolerant, and I'm not a big fan of soy.0 -
I prefer unsweetened almond milk, I love the Trader Joe's brand. I am actually contemplating making ice cream out of it now too since it sooooo low in calories, just add fresh fruit!0

Cow.
I don't care for the taste of Almond. Soy tastes good, but I don't want too much soy in my diet. As for cow, I feel so much better when I have a glass of it specifically every day. I went without it for a while and I never felt as good as I did when I drank it, so now it's mandatory.0 -
lactose, nope.
soy products, I try to limit them because soy is in an awful lot of stuff in the USA... so...
almond milk it is.0 -
Almond milk! I love it so much
I also love soy milk, but it's not good to eat too much soy, so I save that for my weekly lattes0 -
Love Coconut milk myself. Low cal and taste great!!!0

I've recently discovered a love for SoGood Soy Milk. Makes it so my tummy doesn't hurt when I eat breakfast lol0

I drink soy milk. I want to switch over to almond milk but I have yet to find one I like.0

Silk original almond mmm, I do enjoy the taste of regular FF milk better than the almond milk, but not so much that it bothers me, plus almond milk feels much lighter in the stomach0

my dr told me to use almond sugar fee instead of cow milk helps lower sugar and cream in coffee instead even though it has more fat so i went black with my coffee. i use either 1% or some time almond or choc soy for smoothies0
-
unsweetened vanilla almond milk! I still drink cow's milk when that's what's available. I avoid soy because unfermented soy products produce hormone mimics and pretty much any processed food you find contains soy in some form or another!0
-
I like the Light Vanilla Almond Milk but if I can't find it, Vanilla Soy is okay. Both are delicious with oatmeal!0
