Received a flat of this product on a subscription. I was hoping to save money by buying in bulk and was looking forward to the convenience of having the product shipped on a scheduled basis.The very first carton I opened contained a thick and lumpy fluid. It did not smell bad or have a distinct taste it just was not what I expected to come out of a carton that should have contained soy milk. Yes I did shake the carton well before opening it.
The second carton was fine.
The bottom line is that the loss of one carton from the flat eliminates the whole value proposition of buying in bulk and on-line. I would avoid this brand.
Update: Score so far for the pack of 12: 3 bad 8 good. One more to go!
I did recently discontinue this subscription for two reasons. First, I saw that the regular store-brand unsweetened organic soy milk is cheaper per carton than this one (even if I factor in the subscription discount). Second, and more important, I wanted to switch to a soy milk that is fortified with certain vitamins (i.e. B12, since I don't eat animal products).
That being said, I really liked the taste of that one and the convenience of the subscription service.I cannot tolerate milk so this soymilk is ideal for me. It's fine for coffee and in anything that will overpower it. By itself it's not that great. Ii makes awesome protein shakes: 3 cups of soymilk, 2 scoops of soy protein powder and 3 to 4 tbsp of agave gives you 20gr of protein per cup. I have no sugar spikes with this drink and my stomach is happy with it.Pleasant taste, smooth texture, although unsweetened, has a sweeter taste than some soy milks. Great in coffee!I have to second what Croy said, I use this with All the Whey chocolate flavored whey protein and an electric mixer every weekday morning for breakfast. 3 cups & 2 scoops is just about right, adjust to thickness preference. I prefer it to be very thick, I find it tastes better and has more protein that way. On its own this soy milk is OK.
