soy cream

FYI - Trader Joe's brand "Soy Creamy" Cherry Chocolate Soy Cream is really quite good. I've had the Soy Delicious brand of the same flavor and found it too gritty and a little bland. The TJ's version is much creamier and has a bit more cherry punch to it.

yeah baby! I love that stuff. the mango vanilla is good too, but the cherry is the best, and the soy doesn't phlegm up my fella. score.

yes indeedy, but have you had Double Rainbow's soy cream? There's is by far the best I've tasted. Their Cinnamon Caramel flavor is better than most premium ice creams to my taste buds.

Still, can't beat the TJ's cherry chocolate for size and price!

I've had the Good Karma carrot cake rice cream, and honestly I found the texture to be a little iffy (ice cream is all about texture for me). Good flavor, but it pulled out of the carton a little gelatinous for me. Double Rainbow is like in a class of its own in terms of fake ice cream, though I was really encouraged by TJ's attempt. Theirs isn't as rich and creamy as the the Double Rainbow, but the texture is right.

I wish we had Trader Joe's in Daytona. :( I definitely miss it.

Well, all these fake ice creams and organic produce and other good stuff should be available at your local health food store, though probably at premium prices.
