Re: OT---I knew it was good!!!

Seems to me there was a lactose-free cream in the supermarket, last
time I visited. You can definitely get milk with the lactose removed,
although IMO it tastes less good than regular milk.

A long time ago I contacted one of the major soy milk mfgs, and they
were the ones who told me that it was a protein issue. From what you
say, it sounds like it is more than just proteins in general, but a
particular protein -- casein. I probably can have casein, as I am not
allergic to milk, just severely lactose intolerant. For example, I
can eat vegetarian cheeses that contain casein, though I think that
their texture is like plastic, rather than cheese. I'm wondering if
it's possible to get casein (I haven't looked yet)? If so, I might
try it out. It would be lovely to have a pumpkin pie with a custardy
texture.
