8th Continent Light Vanilla Soymilk!

I had never tried soymilk before now, but I actually like it! The only light soymilk I could find was vanilla, but I'm all for getting the original stuff as well!

It's nice to know there's something I can have other than dairy milk now; I've already cut out that.

If you can find it get their light chocolate soy milk. On Saturdays we make a shake:

2 cups light choc. soy milk

1 banana

ice cubes

throw in blender! Very yummy! Serves 2.

MMMmmm... I saw the chocolate stuff at the store - I should have gotten it too! Maybe I'll try to make a banana "milk" shake. x)

I used to drink Silk and then I tried 8th Continent and there is NO way I would EVER switch back!!! It's cheaper and it tastes 10 thousand times better!!!

The light vanilla and light chocolate are both AMAZING.

=]

It's sweeter than dairy milk, and yet it has 1/3 of the sugar! It tastes 1000x better too. I never thought I'd like soymilk, but I actually love it!

Me happy. x)

i know! i love the light vanilla and light chocolate!! i buy the light original as well but only if i'm using it on cereal or mixing it with something else cuz it's a bit plain! but they're all amazing and a lot less calories even than the fat free milk!!

i just bought some vanilla rice milk but havnt tried it yet. ill try it tomorrow and give results lol

 

Kroger always has it on sale - it's awesome! xD I'm so glad I've finally found a soymilk that my mom will let me get!

i bought a container of plain 8th continent, and silk soy milks... i'm going to try them soon!  i'm soooo excited at the prospect of having cereal and milk again :)

i don't know if anyone cares but that stuff has artificial sweetener in it in case someone does care and hasn't noticed.

 So right!  I buy Silk brand unsweetened, and it is just as good as the sweetened varieties.  When you put it on cereal you never even notice!

I have to get the unsweetened because the regular soy milk tastes like straight sugar to me, much sweeter than real milk.  Yuk.  I don't know why they have to make it super sweet??

yea. i love unsweetened soy milk. the only time i get sweetened is when i get chocolate and i usually get light because it's not so sweet and the silk brand doesn't put artificial sweetener in it.

i like unsweetened regular or unsweetened low fat soy milk. omega-3 soy milk is good too.

i'm glad there's other flavors and other brands.

silk is my fav.   regular and sometimes chocolate.

well that sure burst my bubble!!  i read labels pretty obsessively but i guess i didn't study soy milk like i should of.... i don't have a headache though (aspartame typically gives me one) so maybe it's one of the "not so bad ones" ... i'll have to check it out! thanks though!
