I'm hooked on this stuff....

[Cloud9Gal]

I don't know if any of you have had a chance to taste this stuff, but it is GOOD! Awesome alternative to soy milk or regular milk.
I never knew Almond Milk could taste so good!
I'm a milk lover, so I still drink good old fashion milk as well!

The box in the picture says "Soy Free"?

Actually the box nor the picture say anything, they're incapable of communication, however it does read Soy Free.

LOL!

Its late I need sleep! Argh!

:wavey:

[Cloud9Gal]

You are right John~ that's because it is NOT soy milk. It is ALMOND milk. There's a difference between a soy bean and an almond.

Thanks for taking the bullet for us Snuffy... do us a favor and record video of yourself drinking it... think that's it going to be a hoot.

I only drink milk from cows.

Mooooo :wavey:

[gigabyte]

Ok so someone has figured out how to "milk" a Soya Bean, and an Almond, whats next, Kidney Bean Milk...? The stuff people can come up with, well the Russinas have been "Milking" a beverage from potatos for many many years, and what the Scottish and Irish "Milk" from grain is a beverage as well, OK so they forment it some after they "Milk it" but to some it is just like mothers milk...lol

BTW Thanks for the post C9G, I have never seen the Blue Diamond stuff before and I will have to look for it now, I just wonder what will happen when the Son in Law tries to forment it...lol

Great morning laugh thread!! Goofballs!!:icon_lol: I've had almond milk and I can second the yummy!! Almonds are a great source of protein as a snack or as milk. My stomach doesn't tolerate the real stuff anymore.

[Moparmike]

Almond brand....



Actually, as you've already found out it's not a soy-base. It's basically almonds that have had the snot (and most of the fat) whipped out of them.
To paraphrase the famous credit line from many movies..."No soybeans were harmed in the making of this product..." :d

There are people that are soy intolerant...it can be just as annoying as being lactose or gluten intolerant. This is a good one for them to try out.
Not a bad choice for a diabetic milk substitute either...but I still prefer to stick with 1% Holstein juice myself. :)

Not a good choice if you're supposed to keep tabs on your salt intake though. It is a bit on the salty side.

Thanks for the info Moparmike! Especially the part about the almonds having had the snot whipped out of them. LOL! What a visual!
They do have the "Vanilla" flavored Almond Milk Mike, and it's not salty at all. Hubby is also diabetic and he loves it on his cereal :)

[PRB]

Ok, I'll try it and report back...

[Terry]

I'll take mine smoked, with snot, and smash them with my teeth! :wavey:

[PRB]

Ok, I tried it. I bought the vanilla kind. Vanilla almond milk? That's three different things! It's pretty good, I have to say. I will try it with my chocolate cheerios tomorrow... :d

[crashaz]

ROFL! Great Chocolate and Vanilla,


Now if they could just combine chocolate with Peanut Butter.


Reese's Milk! :jump:

My Dad grew up on a farm, and loved "freshly squeezed milk", right out of the cow. He said that, I should qualify. Maybe he was pulling our legs, I don't know. All of his children thought that was insane!

Paul~ Same exact thing for my Dad. He grew up on a farm as well, and always talked about warm milk straight from the cow's teat.

NC

Hey NC~ Yay! High Five! I'm glad you bought some.....but now you have to let us know what you think of it? Did you like it? Or will it be an acquired taste for you? Or maybe you spewed it right back out?

I had 1/2 glass of it first, just to taste it- then I poured it over my Vanilla Almond Special K- YUM! I was hooked!

[Snuffy]

Okay, I managed to buy a bag of almonds and I finally got them all milked.

3681

Surprizingly ... its good! :) A little thicker than regular milk and it definately has a nutty flavor to it even though I bought the vanilla flavor.

Good Recommendation C9G!

Thanks you! You're a Princess!

:applause:

[Cloud9Gal]

Alright Snuffy! Woohoo! I'm glad you like it- and the best part is that it's good for you :)

I bought the vanilla one yesterday- I like it even better than the regular one. Next, I will try the unsweetened one and see how it tastes.

Thanks for reporting back :)

[PRB]

That's the one I bought, Snuffy! "Cloud Girl Nine", you should get a commission for this!! :icon_lol:

Oh I do like it! I have a soy milk maker (it will also make rice and almond milk). I need to try making almond milk. The key is to get the flavoring close to commercial brands. Not easy.

[Snuffy]

OMG! I'm completely sold now.

Just having my bednight snack ... Some Cinnamon Streusel Frosted Mini Wheats and Almond Milk!

MMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm glad you are enjoying it Snuffy! Nothing beats a good ole bowl of cereal as a bedtime snack. I love Mini Wheats too! Especially the Blueberry Muffin kind and the Maple Syrup ones. Great stuff!

I only drink milk from a glass. Try drinking milk from cows and you'll get kicked in the head.

Squeeze a tit = milk

Squeeze a bean = soy milk

Squeeze a nut = almond milk

Glad I could help! :icon_lol:

The only time I've ever had goat's milk was straight from the goat, no interim container.

I use to drink milk occasionally from the jug, but then I found out that the remaining milk sours much quicker doing that ...

I beg to differ just a little on your comments here Ken.

"Squeeze a nut = almond milk" Could sometimes stand for irrepairable damage ... :mixedsmi:

I'm going on my 4th quart of this stuff ... :applause:

I have since tried the chocolate version and the vanilla unsweetened- I love both! I'm really glad I gave this stuff a try, and I'm also glad you are enjoying it as well Snuffy! If you go on their website, you can print a 1$ coupon for your next purchase.
I went to Giant Eagle yesterday, and they had a sale on the almond milk. It was 2.99 for half a gallon carton. Not bad!
