Westsoy Organic Unsweetened Original Soymilk ( 8x64 OZ) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Westsoy brand soy milk(in choices of Plain and Vanilla at Ralph's grocery stores) is one of the only brands so far, that I have found that has an unsweetened choice.If you have a Trader Joe's market near you, you may also find their own brand in the unsweetened variety. I try to stay away from sugar and I have a really really bad relationship with dairy products, and started using this several years ago. I have found that almost anything I used with milk, I can use this instead. The only time I prefer milk is in my coffee, and even then I use "Lactaid", which is a lactose free milk. Coffee-wise, I like the creamier consistency better, and the soymilk tends to break up in coffee and it's not pretty.
I use Soymilk in my cereal, both hot and cold, and it's a wonderful replacement for milk or ice cream when used in a smoothie, with some ice and fruit(or any flavor you want to add.) Works great as a glass of soy with any meal.A refreshing taste, that, after a while you may even think is better than milk. The Vanilla, which is naturally flavored, gives just a hint of flavor to make it a little different then the plain for a little variety. But the Plain is good too.
Ingredients are simply: Filtered Water and whole organic soybeans(vanilla flavored has also natural flavoring added)
Nutritional Info:- It's a a great source of Protein, with 9 grm. per 8 oz. serving,and 46 mg isoflavones, it also supplies 4% calcium and 10% iron in each serving. Per serving it supplies 90 calories(original flavor), 4.5g Fat, 0.5saturated fat, 0 g of trans, 2.5 polyunsat fat,1g monosat fat. NO cholesterol(this is always a big plus for me),30mg sodium 300 mg potassium 4 gr dietary fiber and 1g sugars (not added but coming from the ingredients). The only thing it lacks is the Vit D that is added to milk, so you may have to check around and find another source for that of something you like.
Packaged in a carton with an easy pour recloseable spout, it has a pretty good shelf life(several months at least), and should be refrigerated once it's open, at which point it is usually good for about a week to 10 days. At the time of this review,I thought these 64 oz cartons were a really nice deal, but then I saw the shipping cost- yikes!. But prices change and a better deal may come along so compare at time of purchase. I'll still go to Ralph's for the 32 oz cartons for now.
For dairy free diets, Westsoy is a good, healthy choice.
Remember to breathe, eat healthy and enjoy....Laurie
