Having my first cup now.
I'm always in a creamer dilemma. I don't use any flavored creamer type things.
Real cream, milk, or half n half is ok.

I really love the Silk, non gmo, organic soy milk in the green container. I can only find that particular style in the commissary or Harris Teeter in my town.
It has a bit of fiber and a lot of protein. Its low fat. It's creamy and very slightly sweet. Not "beany tasting" like some. If you shake the box you get a nice latte style foam.

However, it comes with the controversy about soy and phylates that cause cancer.
I only drink it with coffee, so no more than maybe 3/4 cup at most.

Do you think my obvious, possibly misplaced, love of the soy milk outweighs the risk?

All beans seeds and most oils have phylates... they are destroyed by heating and digestion. So drink up...lol.
Isn't it amazing that the longest living people in the world eat soy daily...yet Americans don't. Sigh.

It just goes to show, it's who you talk to (or read). Thanks. I think I'll have another cup!
