We have a milk allergy which means our body has an allergic reaction (IgE mediated) to a protein found in cow?s milk. This could be casein and/or whey. For many of us, this took years to discover as we struggled with undiagnosed hives, breathing difficulties, rashes and many other symptoms, from mild to severe. This community is here to help you find variety, health and tasty milk-free soymilk or dairy free ?ice cream?. For those of you who are lactose intolerant, but don?t have a true allergy, please visit our Lactose Free community.

Really good chocolate ice cream. Extra sweet w/the coconut milk but ooh so yummy.
I love the simply salted verison of this. Salty, no butter and tasty. Great for someone that misses buttered popcorn.
I just tried Amy's Indian Mattar Tofu for the first time and thought it was great. I usually make my own lunch so a frozen meal is something of a treat for me. The flavor was good and it was a perfect size for me. The portion may be small for many people, however!
The box for this meal says non-dairy, gluten-free, and Kosher Pareve. In addition, last time I checked, Amy's does not use any peanuts in any of their foods. This meal does not contain tree nuts either. It may be a good meal option for peanut-allergic and or tree nut-allergic individuals. I recall that Amy's does use tree nuts in other items, so there may be a chance of cross-contamination on the tree nuts--call Amy's to check if this is a concern for you. Also, no GMO's BTW.
