Does anyone know of something I can eat cereal with in the morning other than Silk or Soy Dream?

Have you tried Orange Juice? I have an uncle that loves it that way. For me, it's yogurt.

Welcome. Why did you decide to be a "vegan"?

I was discouraged when I saw such hostile remarks being made towards each other.

Why?

I'm sure that's not the group as a whole, but I think that if you posted more ideas, recipes, and
helpful information rather than personal opinions everyone, including a beginner like me, would
benefit much more.

If you're interested in good health, you should be offended that most of the recipes here involve
lots of fat and/or lots of sugar. Most recipes here would indicate that the average "vegan" diet is
every bit as unhealthy as sugar- and fat-laden diets containing meat and dairy.

Anyway. I love that this resource is here either way.

Yeah, so do I.

If you want to have a bit of a sugar overload, try apple juice. Most soymilks also contain a lot of
added sugar, so it's probably a wash. I don't have much of a sweet tooth, but I occasionally opt for
oatmeal in the mornings. And not that "quick" stuff, I prefer as close to whole grain as possible.
Boil it for a while and add a bit of your preferred sweetener (maple syrup works. Doesn't need
anything else.

I'm not having much luck and wasting my money when it comes to buying milk alternatives.

If you still like the taste of real milk, try supporting humane organic dairymen. Their products
deserve support from people who care about cows. By avoiding ALL dairy products, you're not
contributing to any solution. Milk does have some benefits, particularly if it's low-fat or skim.

Give Blue Diamond Almond milk a try. -nancy-

Don't worry, we have resident mock-vegan trolls. You'll learn to spot them pretty quickly.

Depends what brands are available to you. There are LOADS of different non-dairy milks available, at
least in the UK -- 'health food' shops tend to have a moderate selection, but the best selections
are to be found in independant co-operatives (including fresh soy milk, which is my favourite kind
of soy milk by far). My favourite milk-alike for cereal (and possibly in general) is actually oat-
milk - it's not especially like cows-milk and it has a very mildly porridgey taste that's great for
cereal. If you don't want a milk-alike, unsweetened fruit juice can be 'interestingly different', as
can the syrup from canned fruit (that you can also add to your cereal).

Try almond milk, oat milk, and rice milk. There's nothing wrong with eating cereal dry and having a
delicious drink alongside it to help wash it down either.

Also consider having non-traditional foods for breakfast. Lately I've been having fun eating squash
for breakfast.

Really great,

Promoting the consumption of milk on a vegan Newsgroup. You really are a stupid troll.

==========================
LOL The simple rule for simple minds in action. As long as you don't eat any animal parts, you don't
care how many animals die for all this processed food stuff and canning? You guys really are just
too precious for words. Well, there is one word, hypocrites....
