Has anyone tried SILK, soy milk??

[momoffuzzyfaces]

DEFINITELY start with the chocolate.

That's what I started with too!!! I had tried an off brand years ago and tossed it out. But the chocolate looked so good I tried it and love it. Then I went to Vanilla because I wanted something I could use in different things. Love it too but now am using the Low fat Vanilla. I like it even better. They make great smoothies! The Silk brand is the only kind I'll ever use.

So thrilling to be able to eat cereal again after 30 some years. I feel like a kid again!

Choco Soy effing rocks!

With Rice Crispies or Cheerios? I am there.

The vanilla is good in coffee. The regular soy isn't bad, in a pinch.

I can look at regular milk and feel ill, If I get the jones for cereal I do it on the weekends, that way I am close to home.

The Sunday paper always has coupons for soymilk!

The chocolate makes a yummy banana shake: one banana, 1 cup choc soy milk, a little sweetener or suger if you like, blend and YUM!

It's tolerable. I'm also lactose intolerant, but I never really liked milk in the first place. Seems like if they make it in soy, I've had it. I really like Tofuti Cuties, they're little ice cream sandwiches made out of tofu.

I'm lactose intolrant and kept hearing people rave about soy milk and how healthy it is. I went to the store and bought some so I could try it. I swallowed three gulps and threw it all up. I thought it was the worst thing I've ever tasted.

i've used it, vanilla flavor on cereal, blended with frozen berries and bananas. even ran a taste testing at work one lunch. the chocolate silk won, but it was billed as chocolate milk.

shepgirl - did you get the unflavoured stuff? NO WONDER.

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.

Yeah, I've tried the Soy Milk because John likes it. I nearly gagged. I'm not a big milk drinker in recent years since I developed lactose intolerance. I LOVE Lactaid Chocolate milk. It's thick and sweet and really good.

I've tried SILK and wasn't overly impressed. (chocolate) but I LOVE the 8th Continent's chocolate milk.

I love Chocolate SILK. I don't really care for the plain, but will use Vanilla on my cereal.

If I don't like it, then that's too much waste.

I don't like what I've tried enough to drink it straight from a glass, but using it in cereal, I like it. But, I know where I work, if you don't like something, there's no problem returning it for a full refund. I don't know how your stores are, but we also allow people to try something before purchasing it. It never hurts to ask.

i have been using silk for years. the plain unflavored kind. i'm lactose intolerant. and never could fathom just drinking a glass of milk, soy or otherwise. but i use it in mac and cheese, and on cereal, etc. i don't like the flavored kinds tho.

I cannot stand soy milk! It tastes like sandy liquid.

Jonah calls it "yuk milk" and can identify it by the various cartons somehow..

[moosmom]

I've only tried it on cereal. Haven't poured it in a glass to drink it. I guess I'm kind of afraid of what it'll taste like, since I've drunk milk from a cow since I was a baby.
