Did I Hear Almond Milk?

OMGosh, I recently went on a mini-vacation to my Aunt Rita's and Uncle Curtis's house and I am glad to say that I have 2 new loves in my life. This first one being Blue Diamonds Almond Breeze Vanilla. Regular milk does not like me therefore I do NOT drink it...at all. No calcium coming from milk for me. Now, I have to admit that my Aunt's family in Maryland eats things different than we do here in Ohio. They love health foods and are vegetarians. EWWW, I need my meat. lol Well anyway, she had me taste this Blue Diamond's Almond Breeze Vanilla. And wow, did I love it. I came straight home and went out and bought me some right away.

I bought a half-gallon at Wal-Mart for $2.86. Now while that may seem high for a half-gallon of milk, I am definitely fine with that. I am the only one who drinks it in my house. My daughter says that she will stick to cow milk and Hubby, well I won't even ask him to try it. You could say it's a mind game with them. lol

Anyhow, I have used it in my coffee and it was delicious. I have used it in cereal and it was delicious. And just to drink a glass is also delicious. AND, it's only 90 calories and 2.5 grams of fat per serving. Compared to 130 calories and 5 grams of fat in 2% milk per serving.

You can visit Blue Diamond to see all the FAQ's, and you will be surprised at what all great things that this milk has. Here are few great things:

  • No MSG
  • Made in a Peanut free plant
  • It's Kosher
  • No eggs
  • No Trans Fat
  • No Wheat or gluten
  • No BPA
  • Made in the USA

I did NOT receive any compensation of any sort for this review. This is my own opinion of what I think.

  2. I have no problem w/dairy. But I have bought & used almond milk. It is yummy! My oldest son developed a dairy allergy late in life & that is one of the dairy free choices he likes as well. I esp like it in a plain type of cereal as then I am not tempted to add sugar!
