    Well, I tried the Almond Milk for the first time last night, got my hubby to taste it as well. His response was "nut juice" LOL. He thought it tasted like paste water. I wasn't feeling particularly well last night, so I don;t think I gave it a fair try. I had a couple of sips of it. I was kinda indifferent to it. I'll try it again today, as my tummy is happier today.

    :drinker:

    I don't drink the almond milk. I just put it on my cereal and cook with it. That's all you really need regular milk for, same for almond milk.

    I put my son on rice milk because he was having earaches and it was recommended it saved him from having to get ear tubes I wish I could tell everybody!!! I do not like rice milk I think it's way too sweet but my baby boy loves it! I recently bought some almond milk for me and it sat in the fridge for days because I was afraid. Finally tried it in some shredded wheat and it was awesome! I still like regular milk better straight almond milk is a little too sweet in my opinion to drink alone.

    We have our daughter drinking rice milk too for ear infections. I don't care for it at all, but I've tried to get her to drink almond milk and she doesn't like it as much. Ha!

    We use it in baking and things like pancakes. My son is allergic to soy and dairy. It gives a little more complexity than the rice milk. We don't drink the almond milk plain. My son also drinks chocolate hemp milk -- which is way more nutritious, but without the chocolate doesn't taste good at all.

    The only one that is not 100 % loving this is my good ole farm boy husband...i.e. "milk should come from cows not nuts"

    Wonder how they milk nuts...

    I've actually had almond milk. It's pretty good but I don't think I could get my fam onboard with it.

    I come to MFP to pick up chicks - look at you!! :wink:

    Maybe you could present it as an additional beverage instead of replacing milk with it. You never know just what will happen! :drinker:

    I love almond milk - i have found the vanilla flavor is way too sweet for me. I don't use sweetners or sugar, so it was a little intense for my taste buds. I do love the original flavor though!

    I am lactose intolerant and used to drink soy milk. However, now I try to stay away from soy products (I have crazy hormone imbalances) as much as I can - i looove it!!!!
