I'm allergic to all dairy and I had been using soya for a few years now, but I've switched to rice milk as it can actually be used in coffee without curdling. I had missed having a nice cup of coffee. Coffee shops use a professional type of soya that works, but in the supermarkets there is nothing but regular soya. I recommend rice milk - also doesn't have a strong taste like soya does.

I like soya milk but I've stopped drinking it because too much soya, especially for women can cause hormonal imbalance that can develop into some serious disease. I have proven that to be true. I have had two surgeries already.

It's funny you say that because my hormones are all over the shop - hence my migraines.

@toniganzon A few people have mentioned the health warning associated with soya. I wouldn't of even drank the stuff if I had known.

although i don't drink it, i didn't know that it curdles. i also live in a rice-eating country, but never knew there's rice milk.

yes, there's lots of different types of milk nowadays. Due to my many allergies, I'm limited to what I can have.

This is true. My shopping is very expensive as due to my food allergies I have to buy food from the 'free from' ranges. But I have no choice if I want to eat. Lucky I don't have a large appetite.

@TiarasOceanView between food allergies and GM foods it is hard to find what to eat. Most of our food is tampered with.

I like soy milk and almond milk. I've never tried rice milk.

@SerenityEngel - I understand. Almonds are one of the few nuts my girlfriend is not allergic to.

Almond is nice, but I am allergic to that, so I avoid it.

There's a few supermarkets that sell it here. Mum had trouble picking me some up the other week. It is really the big stores, not the local small ones.

I always drink soya milk, too. Never tried to drink rice milk. Will surely give it a try.

It's good for cooking with as it doesn't taint the food with taste like soya does.
