[Sca-cooks] Almond Milk Question

[tom.vincent at yahoo.com]

Here's the URL for details on all varieties.  http://www.bluediamond.com/shop/natural/almondBreeze32.cfm
 
The packages aren't that big (32 oz.), so they really don't have a ton of *anything* in them.  With 75% of the calories coming from fat, it's abundantly clear that they're coming from the almonds and not from any of the other minor ingredients.
 
Recommended.

When shall it be said in any country of the world, my poor are happy; neither ignorance or distress is to be found among them; my jails are empty of prisoners, my streets of beggars; the aged are not in want, the taxes not oppressive; the rational world is my friend because I am friend of its happiness; when these things can be said, then may that country boast of its constitution and government.

Blue Diamond has a plain, unsweeted version.  It has a number of 
ingredients that aren't water or almonds, but not sugar or vanilla.

(annoyingly, the sugar in the sweetened version is listed in the 
ingredients as "dried cane juice").
