A Review of Silk Soy Dairy Products

Because of the health benefits, I switched from cow's milk to soy milk five years ago. Over the years I have tried a lot of different brands. My favorite brand of soy milk is Silk. I buy Plain, Vanilla and Chocolate Silk soy milk on a regular basis.

The Name Says it All

Silk soy milk is a "smooth as silk" non-dairy alternative. The creamy taste and texture is a treat! Silk makes their dairy alternative products from organic soybeans. They are calcium enriched and vitamin fortified. Silk has many health benefits; it is lactose, dairy, and cholesterol free. Silk products are also allergen free as well. Their milk does not contain any gluten, eggs, peanuts, casein, or MSG.

Chocolate Silk is one of my favorite indulgences. It comes in single serving, half pint, quart or half-gallon. A single serving is a tasty 190 calories. It is a heart healthy trans-fat free treat full of potassium and vitamins.

For Coffee Too

Want a morning sweet treat? I enjoy French Vanilla Silk Creamer. This creamer is full of taste and complements coffee well. Believe me, you will miss the taste of your regular creamer. It is healthier too. Silk Creamers also come in orignal and hazelnut flavors as well. They are available in pints or quarts.

It's Good Enough For Starbucks!

If you go to Starbucks, and order your drink with soy milk, you have had Silk. Silk is used in Starbucks specialty drinks. You can also buy quarts of Silk from Starbucks.

Their Other Stuff

Silk has not limited themselves to soy milk and creamers. They have a number of different products like their specialty flavor drinks that come in Chai, Coffee, Mocha or Spice.

They also produce a dreamy - creamy yogurt. Silk Live Soy Yogurt comes in eight flavors. You can choose from Plain or Vanilla to fruity flavors like Banana-Strawberry, Black Cherry, Key Lime, Blueberry, Raspberry or Peach.

You also have new options like Silk Plus Omega-3 DHA, Silk Plus Fiber or Silk Light, or enjoy one of their silky, fruity Silk Live Smoothies.

Good For You and the Environment

I not only buy Silk for the taste and health benefits, but for their environmentally friendly outlook. Silk is involved in environmental causes like wind generated electricity and traditional farming.

They have also been awarded the Green Power Partner of the Year Award by the EPA.

Silk is reasonably priced and available in your local grocery store. For special offers and coupons, you can visit www.silksoymilk.com.
