So Deliciuos Coconut Milk


GFreeMO

I was wondering if anyone uses So Delicious Coconut Milk. I was thinking of buying some. They seem like a very allergy friendly company. How is it? Does it taste good with cereal or in coffee? Should I try plain or vanilla?

Thanks!

I've had it. Didn't have any problems with it (their ice cream makes me very sick for some reason, but not the milk). My only complaint is that it just tasted like water, thick white water. I had the plain flavor, and I believe it was unsweetened. Perhaps that's normal for coconut milk, I have no idea. But I was expecting a lovely mild coconut flavor, and it was like thick water. :(

It's just about all I use now! My husband eats it daily on gluten-free cereal and I use it for baking and cooking too. I like the "original" the best because it has a more neutral taste for things like mashed potatoes or soups. I will also get the unsweetened if they are out of the original. The vanilla is too sweet for me and obviously vanilla when used in cooking or baked goods. It's okay on cereal or in coffee though. Give them all a try to decide which you like best.

I hated the Silk Coconut Milk. Ugh.

Is So Delicious better than that?

Maybe I expected a coconut hint in the flavor...it was thick and tasteless to me.

I'll have to see if I can find that brand.

It does not have a strong coconut flavor if that is what you are wanting. I like it because it doesn't make everything coconut flavored. If I want a coconut flavor I will use canned coocnut instead (which still is barely noticeable in baked goods such as cornbread). If you ar elooking for somethign in betweent he canned coocnut milk flavor and the coconut "beverage" flavor you could try mixing them together so you get something in between.

I love this milk! It tastes great with cereal and the vanilla one is really good in coffee. Give it a try. I really like it as a milk alternative.

I love the creamers but I can't get them anymore. I use more than a "serving" in my coffee and the calories add up the way I Over-use it! :P

Well, I thought that this was going to be a great milk alternative for me but it has not been agreeing with me. I can't stay out of the bathroom with it. I read that it can have a big laxative effect in some people. Oh well, back to making rice milk.

come dance with me Enthusiast

We like the vanilla one.

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
