I took a major risk on this product. Growing up, I was lactose intolerant. It turned me against milk. I have been using protein supplements for years and always mixed them in water. People would always say, 34;Eww, water with a protein shake?34; It's not that bad, people. I had noticed that I have been getting worse about snacking on sweet foods. I honestly don't like sweet foods. But I was eating MMs, Almond Joy, Mounds, cake and was worried that I was letting myself get too into sweet foods. So, my daughter, who isn't lactose intolerant, loves almond milk. I tried some of hers with one of my protein shakes. I even let the shake sit in the freezer to make kind of a chocolate protein milkshake. It was good! It also didn't hurt me. For those people who try to convince lactose intolerant people of 34;it won't hurt you34;, please, understand that we've had hard lives! You all eat your ice cream and we paid triple for some frozen yogurt. We were even scared to eat macaroni and cheese. Milk to a lactose intolerant person is like poison. No offense to Almond Breeze. I have now drank two entire cases of this. I even got creative (bad idea) and tried the coconut almond with my chocolate protein shake, it was okay, but the unsweetened Almond Breeze is perfect in my Naked Nutrition chocolate protein shake. Oh and by the way, keep it away from the teenagers. They have no courtesy. They will drink a whole container and not put another one in the fridge. Probably the best compliment possible was from my son who is 13, he said, 34;This milk is so good. It's my new favorite because I can drink the whole container.34; No clue that us parents pay for this stuff. Thinks I've got an almond cow outside. Seriously, really good product, I like the shelf-sustainability. We have a lot of food and drinks and everything else in the fridge, so I can just grab one and get it cold and make my 2 shakes for the day.
