Almond Milk?

[guspech750]

So I came across Almond Milk in a magazine add......and it was not a gay/lesbian magazine. I thought I would go out on a wim and buy the vanilla flavored almond milk. Holy Sh**!! It is very very good. I have no porblems being lactose intolerant or anything like that. But if you are and are not, I highly recommend picking up one and trying it.

I think it was less than $2.50 with tax.

A half gallon is 64oz.
Also this would suck if you were lactose intolerant and also had a nut allergy(I have neither).

Nut allergy yes.... lactose intolerant no......

Almond milk is a milky drink made from ground almonds. Unlike animal milk, almond milk contains no cholesterol or lactose. It can be used as a substitute for animal milk in many recipes, and is also completely vegan. Commercial almond milk products such as brand Almond Breeze, come in plain, vanilla, or chocolate flavors. They are often enriched with vitamins. It can also be made at home by combining ground almonds with water in a blender. Vanilla flavoring and sweeteners are often added. However, users should be cautious not to use bitter almonds, since the combination of bitter almonds and water releases cyanide."

"Soy milk (also called soya milk, soymilk, soybean milk, or soy juice) and sometimes referred to as soy drink/beverage is a beverage made from soybeans. A stable emulsion of oil, water, and protein, it is produced by soaking dry soybeans and grinding them with water. Soy milk contains about the same proportion of protein as cow's milk: around 3.5%; also 2% fat, 2.9% carbohydrate, and 0.5% ash. Soy milk can be made at home with traditional kitchen tools or with a soy milk machine."

This caught my eye in an ad recently but I haven't looked for it on the store shelves. I looked at their website for more details. Watch out for the sweetened versions: 15 g of evaporated cane sugar in the sweetened vanilla (doubles the calories, over 3 teaspons of sugar per serving) and 20 g in sweetened chocolate (triples the calories, over 4 teaspons of sugar per serving) in 8 oz. servings.

I did see the Almond Butter. That is next on my list of items to try.

For not too expensive you can buy your own grinder, and then you can make butter from just about any kind of nut. Cashew butter is great also.
