    You don't have to drink any 'milk' at all.

    I used to drink Soya milk but it's really hard to find one that doesn't have a sweet vanilla flavour to it so I stopped.

    Rice Milk is a good alternative and I've heard nothing but good things about Almond milk

    Those of you mentioning hazelnut milk, where do you buy it? I've never seen it and am very curious. Would love to try it. :drinker:

    I use Almond Milk-Unsweetened Vanilla.....40 calories for a whole cup, and it's sooo good!

    I second this! Also... there is even hemp milk. I like almond milk because it has more flavor and is a better consistency than rice milk. Rice milk is very thin.

    try almond milk or coconut milk.

    soy is worthless.


    Why is soy worthless?

    unfermented soy contains trypsin inhibitors which block the absorption of protein. so there's literally no point in consuming it. you're stopping your body from using nutrients properly. soy is trash.

    Stay away from Soy Milk, it is not good for you. Coconut milk is the best alternative milk out there. Jillian Michaels is always banging on about it in her podcasts :)

    I love chocolate Soy Milk. Coconut contains healthy fat. I don't agree that soy is bad for you unless you're allergic to it. Tofu is a soy product and it is a healthy protein to add to your diet.

    The unsweetened Almond milk is a great choice and its not thick. My children (3 & 4) tried it the other day and asked for more:smile:

    Soy, Rice, Almond, and Coconut are all easily found in your neighborhood grocery store.

    ^ This! Have even gotten my parents to start drinking / using it instead of regular milk now.

    I don't drink it plain, but I use silk vanilla when I make iced mochas. I'm not a big fan of milk in any form, though.

    There are tons of different milks on the market these days. Almond, soy, coconut, rice, etc. Check out any large supermarket or health food store.

    Skim milk has a much different taste and texture than thicker milk. What milk did you grow up drinking that you didn't like? skim, 1%, 2% or homoginized(sp)? All have different thickness, tastes and such.

    I didn't read through all of the previous entries, so I apologize if I am repeating anything. My mom is lactose intolerant and does not like most of the alternatives. We recently tried Walmarts "Lactose Free" milk. That is what it says on the box, nothing else. Very simple and she loves it. Says it has the closest taste to regular milk she has ever had. It isn't very expensive and it lasts a long time.
