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.

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
