hello almond milk...

jnlelrod

Bye bye cows milk This is my first post btw. I comment sometimes on other posts but I was reading the different threads about how almond milk is healthier and all and decided to pick some up and try it out. I am so glad I did!! Yum!! Thanks for the heads up whoever posted about it. I can't remember lol! But I just had to share. We are making the switch No more cows milk here! Anyone who hasn't tried it should.

What is the benefit is it healthier? I wouldn't mind trying it!

jnlelrod

I think so. From what I read on here it is healthier and no added hormones I guess since cows are injected with hormones and stuff I believe. I actually like the taste better than cows milk. I'm not sure about it being less fatty but I think it is which would be another plus!

I'm totally thinking about getting that instead!!

i always want to buy it but then i forget ! it sounds yummy!

jnlelrod

Yes it is! I took a little taste being a lil hesitant and then chugged a giant cup lol!

jnlelrod

SalasMommy

I HATE almonds so that milk taste yuck to me but Im glad you like it. Im still a milk drinker. Always will be. Plus theres no way my hubby or daughter will switch even if I do... lol... I did do a lactose free one for a while bit I think it was still milk... dunno... I do want to try coconut though. Does it actually taste like coconut though?? @bahamamama4828

I was wondering that too @homebirthadvocate. I know the docs have told me with my other kids to have them on whole milk until they are 2 I believe so I'm not sure about if I can just give only that to my daughter after she turns 1. Im curious too.

I never understood the whole fatty enough for brains thing. That's what's in bm. Like omega 3. My kids get plenty of calcium/bit d from other foods and oily fish for their brain and cod liver oil. Haha did that make sense. Yuck at cows milk were not calves lol

I love mixing the chocolate almond milk with the coconut milk...I am considering trying to make it into a Popsicle with my zoku...hmm

jnlelrod

@bahamamama4828 yep makes sense If the child is getting it in other stuff too guess it doesn't matter. I just so love the taste and I agree its so much better than cow's milk to me!

jnlelrod

@ashley_smashley good idea!!! Yummers!!
