Dairy And Soy Free Milk Help!

[sclark9602]

Okay I called the health food store here and they have the Pacifica milks but every one of them have brown rice sweetner in them. What in the world do I do now?? My kids have to have milk but there is nothing here that I know of or anyone else knows of that they can have. Does anyone know of another common name for a d & soy free milk that is also gluten free?? Thanks.

Have you tried coconut milk? It comes in a can and I use it on cereal (diluted a bit with water as it can be more like cream right out of the can). It does have a mild coconut taste, but with some sweetening it is quite good. And, it's good in a fruit smoothie, especially with pineapple.

I also use fruit juice on cereal - apple is really good.

Can you just buy it at the regular grocery store? That would be great if so. I'm fixing to leave to go shop around for this and see what I find. Thanks so much.

If you have a Whole Foods, you might want to try 365 Organic Rice Milk. Almond milk is good too. Lundberg is another brand of rice milk that's not too bad either.

Also, if you're talking about Pacific brand rice milk...I'm pretty sure that one is safe, from a gluten perspective anyway.

You can buy coconut milk at a regular grocery store. At my neighborhood store it is with the canned, condensed milks. But you may need to ask.

I use almond milk.

Sorry, I'm not understanding. What's wrong with brown rice sweetener?
