Not to worry. With a little time, you too can get used to soy products!

Soy you say...Blech!! I hear you. I thought they were revolting, repulsive, very, very sad excuses for dairy, but I'm here to say - it's ok! In fact, it's more than ok!

If you can find a trader joe's anywhere near you - head on out. Mine is 60 minutes away but it's worth it for the cheese. Soy sation is a cheddar/mozzarella mix. It tastes good, it melts good, and unlike most other soy cheese - it doesn't smell like stinky feet. they also make a really good soy mozzarella. Believe me - I'm a cheese freak, but I'm learning to love these! Galaxy foods also makes a good soy parmesan (can't tell the difference). I even made lasagna for DH the other day - he said it was the best he'd ever had...

Soy and rice milk are good substitutes - I really like the vanilla flavor, but chocolate flavor is good too with ice!

Haven't ventured out to soy yogurt and soy ice cream yet, but I will. I'm trying to become dairy free (eventually) using baby steps. You can do this!
