Has anyone tried SILK, soy milk??

I don't just drink the vanilla either (though I did to try it). It was ok that way but I use it for smoothies, on cereal, and for cooking. I do drink the chocolate though. :)

I just got brave and tried a sip of the plain. EEEEWWWWWW!!!!!! I'll keep it to use on my cereal. The taste of the plain reminded me of Milk of Magnesia. BLEK!!!!!

The stores here have Silk and all the other flavours...but there is a brand of soy that comes in gallon jugs called Sunrise Soy. Sweetened or unsweetened. That's it! :)

I use the plain as a base for smoothies etc - with stevia added for sweetness - and it will take on the flavour of anything you add to it. Kinda like tofu.

It has more protein in it also.

I did buy the unflavoured Catty, didn't know there were other kinds. I've never noticed anything labelled SILK in our stoes, maybe we don't have it. It was such a horrid taste that I just put it on my list of NO'S....lol
What in the world is stevia? Tofu I tried also, find it so blah...

We make our own soy milk.

Soak the beans in water. Grind them in a blender. Strain out the fibers. Boil it. Add sugar or whatever. Voila. Soy milk, the REALLY natural way :)
