There's your problem. Make that , yo.
And even if you don't make it, to be honest, if you're a smart shopper and pay attention to your local markets, you can buy all organic and not spend much more money at all (unless you're buying a lot of meat).
Seriously, people really have this misconception that it's always more expensive to buy organic. It isn't. You just have to change the way you shop. |

mmm have you tried the very vanilla?
I drink the reg vanilla one.
Dying to try chocolate soy.
I find that drinking milk with cultures is really bad for me...I drank it once and I got the worst stomach ache of life (I wanted to die)
I know I was never lactose intolerant but for me milk is just a lot less good than soy. |

aye. I buy my meat for roasting, sausages, bacon etc from a local butcher on the market. It's cheaper, WAY tastier. Supermarkets produce mass produced tasteless stuff, which isn't good. |

The chocoloate soy is actually very good. Would definetly recommend it :)
I used to buy a lot of cheap soy milk from supermarket's here a few years when I had money and sense. Soy milk in tea is ing fantastic.

never buy meat from just ANY supermarket
you really should be choosey about that.
There is a place down here called Penn Dutch that is great for that. Publix I've found to be pretty good as well.
Never buy meat from Wal-Mart Supercenters :wtf: :wtf: |

I think i may go down memory lane and grab a couple of litres of soy now to add to my mundane semi-skimmed milk :D |
