Yesterday I purchased some non-dairy based yogurt, many of you may remember that in the spring of 2007 I discovered that I am allergic to milk and milk products and have been for a very long time. I had a difficult time getting my doctor to listen to me and want to get to the root of the problem instead of treating the symptoms. Now I try to avoid milk products. There are several soy-based yogurts out there, but most of them still used milk cultures. Though I am trying to live locally, I’m not completely consistent yet. Yogurt called to me, yogurt from a national soy product company and purchased at a GR based superstore chain. Today I had the strawberry banana flavor for breakfast. It had an odd coloring and texture. It appears as if the company does not use food coloring so it the color was a light brown-gray color. The texture is not as creamy as milk-based yogurt and the taste was quite different. I don’t think I will try that flavor again. I have a couple more flavors in the ‘fridge including vanilla. If I were more addicted to yogurt, I could buy the plain flavor, purchase a yogurt maker and go to town. I don’t think I miss it that much. Stay tuned for details about the other flavoring
