Look what I found! |
Lookee here! Not content with soya, and almond, it seems like Alpro is going all out to become the milk substitute of choice! Alpro has now brought out a 'hazelnut drink' (spotted in the chiller cabinet at Tescos the other day and also on the shelf at Waitrose).
Although I think choice is a good thing, I'm not sure that bringing out more nut based milk substitutes is a good idea. It makes me wonder what Alpro's rationale is - especially as nut allergies are so common these days.
I haven't tried it yet, I wonder if anyone else has given it a go...
Personally, what I'd like them to do, is to expand their dessert and yoghurt ranges - making them with something else other than soya (as many people who are intolerant of dairy also cannot tolerate soya). Now there's an idea!
I agree! Now that my baby and I are dairy/soy free I find that I'm missing yoghurt and other dessert type things. It would be great to see more choice in that category.
ReplyDeleteOuch! Dairy and soy for you both! If you haven't already tried it, I tried a pea protein yoghurt (from the health food shop) I didn't think it was all that great (maybe that's just me)but gave it a try, 'cos the lady in the shop said her daughter liked it. I noticed the other day that Cheezly also make a pea protein cheese substitute. Not tried it yet, so can't comment on that one! Meanwhile, Worthenshaw's make a dairy and soya free ice cream and the chocolate version is quite OK!!
