Hi jamie, thanks for posting.. yes im lactose intolarnt, and my surg;s PA suggested lactaid.. but im shocked at the amount of carbs and sugars.. both are 12-13 grams each.. omg!

i looked in shoprite and pricehopper for the hood brand.. and they dont have it.. maybe when i go to albany this week i will check out hannafords.

with the almond milk.. i had a bad time with soy, so almond kinda had me not wanting it... if they have a small carton i might purchase it to try it... thanks for the advise

Can you eat almonds? If so it is just almonds pressed with water (can actually make your own), they only have regular size cartons, the vanilla I liked best. Walmart and Hannaford have bothhad the hood calorie coutdown. Can you do regular milk with lactaid tabs peer chance,?? Again you didnt specify what u wanted milk substitute for? Is lactose intolerance a preop or postop phenomenon? Sometimes is goes away postop after first several mnths.........sometimes not. I have heard of a few lactose intolerant preop not being so after strange!!!!!!
