total hippy question re: milk....[views:11322][posts:68]_______________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 2:29pm - AndrewBastard ""] So I like milk but really on skim milk; if it's too thick in kinda scetches me out... Anyway, I think I've developed or am developing lactose intolerance; both my mother and sister did later in their lives and I think I'm next... so my question to vegans/vegetarians/hippys: which hippy milk can I get that is similar to SKIM MILK (i.e. not thick or creamy) and will actually taste good in cereal (which I eat LOTS of)... THANKS! |

| __________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 2:43pm - DreadKill ""] I used to live off milk but now it makes me sick. I think I developed lactose intolerance too. I feel the same way when I eat ice cream or too much cheese. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 2:44pm - the_reverend ""] most silk is really thick. 8th continent might not be. you can also water it down and just shake it a lot. personally, i stick with malk. |
| __________________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 2:47pm - MikeOfDecrepitude ""] I also believe TruTaste makes a lactose-free skim milk. |
| ____________________________ [Jan 3,2010 2:49pm - ZJD ""] rice milk is about as thin as it gets for plant based milk dealies so i would try that. almond milk is not super thick either and tastes pretty great, but i dont buy it and it might be expensive. |
| _______________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 3:14pm - AndrewBastard ""] Yeah, that Silk shit looks gross... Rice milk is nice and thin, maybe I'll try that. |
| ________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 3:17pm - revnon ""] http://www.silksoymilk.com/products/silk-wellness/dha-omega-3-and-calcium that's what I use unless I'm making mixed drinks. then I use either the creamer or vanilla. |
| _______________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 3:22pm - AndrewBastard ""] I dont want flavors or any sweet shit... I want lactose free milk that has the viscosity of skim milk and isn't all sweet and shit. |
| ________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 3:23pm - revnon ""] that's not what I go for. I love my milk to be as thick as possible. |
| _______________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 3:28pm - AndrewBastard ""] gross. |
| ________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 3:29pm - revnon ""] ditto. I was raised on whole milk so I think that skim is just milky water. |
| _____________________________ [Jan 3,2010 3:37pm - blue ""] Andrew, the same thing happened to me when I was about 17 or 18. I couldn't handle dairy the way I used to when I was a kid. Rice Milk is definitely what you're looking for. I prefer it to skim. Light Silk is pretty good too, regular is like heavy cream to me. |
| ________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 3:43pm - revnon ""] I prefer my milk to be as close to ejaculate as possible. |
| _______________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 4:09pm - AndrewBastard ""] Rice Milk FTW |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 4:14pm - arilliusbm ""] I usually can't handle much dairy but I suck it up and shit water like a man. Ice cream is just too good. |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 4:15pm - arilliusbm ""] Lactaid? |
| ________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 4:22pm - martins ""] Stay away from soy milk. Phytoestrogens and all that. LOL, right? Almond milk is a great alternative and you can make it yourself. I made it a few weeks ago and you can use the left over almond meal too. Tastes really good too. |
| _______________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 4:31pm - AndrewBastard ""] i just re read my first sentence up above and realised I'm bad at hungover typing. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 4:45pm - the_reverend ""] you know what helps cure a hangover? whole malk. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 4:54pm - SkinSandwich ""] I have only drank whole milk and will not switch. Although I am 36 years old and just started to get shooting pains all over my abdomen. It happens first thing in thew morning when I put a bit of milk in my coffee. After that though the rest of the day I drink milk and no pain. Weird. |
| ________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 4:59pm - gslice ""] at the risk of being redundant, rice milk is what you want, I used to date a lactose intolerant vegetarian and thats pretty much the only thing that I could use with cereal when I was at her place |

| ____________________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 6:03pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] I prefer rice milk over soy milk myself. But, on the other hand, I'll take skim or 1% milk over anything. I'd want to die if I was lactose intolerant. Nothing better than chugging milk straight from the jug on a hot, humid summer day. |
| _________________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 6:15pm - madoakdevin nli ""] rice milk rules. also the harvey milk picture...hahahah |
| ________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 7:48pm - martins ""] Just drink cream. Shit rules. |

| ________________________________________ [Jan 3,2010 9:26pm - ctb0rderpatrol ""] soy breaks down as estrogen in your body. if you're a man, i'd stay away from that shit |

| _________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 12:25am - martins ""] lol so you replace something that has antibiotics+hormones with something else that has pesticides+lectins+hormones. weeee |

| _________________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 11:12am - Jeff_Met_Aliens ""] vanilla silk. Throw in a shot of soy protein into some vanilla silk. Tastes like a milkshake. Be that a shitty imitation of a milkshake, but close enough while still being actually healthy. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 11:17am - ouchdrummer ""] i love whole milk.... although i can understand why the viscosity would freak you out. |
| _________________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 11:27am - ctb0rderpatrol ""] i get whole unhomogenised milk from a farm in union. they also have local goats milk. the heart problems connected with dairy started when they started homogenising the milk to give it longer shelf life |
| ________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 1:07pm - martins ""] Is it unpasteurized too? I've been looking forever for a source for unpasteurized unhomogenised (raw) milk nearby. |
| _________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 1:08pm - brian_dc ""] find a farmn suck a cow |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 1:10pm - ouchdrummer ""] brian_dc said:find a farmn suck a cow Well yeah... or just send a local farm an email, they'll definitely sell you milk. |
| ________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 1:12pm - martins ""] There's a place in andover but it's only raw goat's milk. I've never had goats milk except in cheese, yogurt, and ice cream form. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 1:14pm - ouchdrummer ""] goat milk is real good. |
| _________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 1:26pm - brian_dc ""] You're so reasonable, Jimbo |

| _____________________________ [Jan 4,2010 2:08pm - lamp ""] On the topic of Chocolate Silk, I dig it more than regular chocolate milk. It has a stronger flavor but isn't as heavy. |
| _________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 2:10pm - brian_dc ""] I support that. |
