So Good products have been a part of our household for almost 4 years now. When my daughter was diagnosed with a milk allergy at 11 months, that time when most parents rejoice in being able to switch to cow’s milk, we had to find a healthy milk alternative. Our Pediatric Allergist recommended So Good over any other brand of soy beverage.
From SoGoodBeverage.com:
So Good soy beverage is fortified with 15 essential nutrients including calcium to build strong bones and teeth, and vitamins D2 and B12 – providing a refreshing and nutritious option for Canadian consumers.
For parents wanting to give fortified So Good to your infant between one and two years of age, we recommend that you consult with a health practitioner. Generally it is considered that fortified soy beverage can be a nutritional replacement for cow’s milk providing that parents provide sufficient fat in the child’s diet.
Just before she turned 2, my daughter’s milk allergy cleared and we were able to start introducing dairy products to her diet. We had become so accustomed to having soy milk in the house, that we still continue to buy it from time to time today 2 years later.
There’s a great Q&A area on the SoGoodBeverage.com site which can help answer anything else you’re curious about in terms of nutrition and diet.
Amanda over at NaturalMommie.com posted this recipe for Orange Julius at home, so we decided to try it with So Good instead of dairy (which I prefer, I’m not a fan of the taste of milk). This recipe also works great with regular milk or for an extra kick of flavour try Almond Fresh Coconut.
Enjoy! Have you tried So Good or made any recipes using soy milk as an alternative?
I have tried soy milk and even after 10 years of multiple attempts the only kind I can stand is the chocolate – and it’s actually quite good! A better alternative to chocolate cows milk for sure.
I like using So Good in my coffee 🙂
Regular soy milk in oatmeal crisp cereal is so good. The soy has a slight sweetness that tastes great with the cereal.
Love this stuff…finally something that’s really good for you and tastes fabulous! 😀
We have not had to deal with food allergies. But we have had soy milk. I enjoy the chocolate flavour alot. My kids and i will drink on occasion.
We only have soy milk in the home, and So Good is definitely up there with my list of favourite brands.
never used soy milk but then I only ever use milk in my waffles and cheese sauce, I can’t stand drinking milk never have
I’ve never had soy milk before and I am interested in trying it. Just recently tried Almond milk and loved it. I think I will pick up some So Good if I see it in town to see how I like it.
I’ve yet to try soy milk but would really like to switch for the nutritional benefits.
So Good products are awesome! We are major fans, especially when used in smoothies!
I love the strawberry so good for smoothies 🙂
The chocolate one is great on it’s own. Soy milk has really helped with my menopause symptoms
I use So Good in ‘milk’ shakes and no one notices the difference.
I tried soy milk and didn’t like it but I’ve heard good things about Almond Milk.
My kids enjoy so good almond fresh milk on a regular basis! The kids love the chocolate soy milk and I don’t have to feel bad about giving it to them!
My oldest son also needed soy as he was allergic to cows milk…he used to projectile vomit every time so that was enough of that! With the soy milk, no more problems. My youngest son now almost prefers it to cows milk. 😉 Thanks for the tips…I am off to try the recipe for Orange Julius at home using the soy.
I love soy milk, especially the “Vanilla Chai” flavour
My mother loves soy milk….personally it’s not something I like.
My kids enjoy soy milk
I have tried it and liked it. I have not tried it in any recipes.
i’ve seen these products at the grocery store so often – but have always hesitated to try them. i should probably give it a try b/c it does sound like a good alternative and good for recipes too.
I prefer cows milk but my kids love soy milk
I prefer reg milk but my sister loves this stuff, I am still old fashioned with food like milk and butter
Coconut? YUM! I love coconut flavored anything. Definitely going to try it
Im not a milk drinker at all, so Soy unfortunately is for me either
I’ve tried So Good and love it! I’ll have to give the Orange Julius recipe a try because it’s right up my alley.
I love love love the vanilla So Good 🙂 Thanks for the great recipe!
Vanilla So good…so good my kids think it’s a treat.
I did not try any recipe, I like to drink, just drink. Love Vanilla & strawberry So Good.
I like So Good in my breakfast smoothies
I have never tried Soo Good milk but it sounds delicious! Ill have to get some to try!
