The only other thing that i can think of is sugar... I didnt realise that many of the cheaper and well known brands of soy and rice milk have added sugar (possibly the same with oat milk???)
Anyway we have just swapped MJ soy milk and it took a while for her to get use to it, no major issues like you have experiences, but then she only has it on her weetbix in the mornings so its not a major part of her intake.
Arimeh, we've tried soy yogurt but because Jovie reacts to soy we took it away... We also use tofutti that I find in Woolworths and it is a cheese replacer, we don't give it to Jovie but the Better than Cream Cheese is fantastic! I used it the other day to make a cheesecake... seriously! The american cheese slices are crap, but I hate processed cheese slices anyway. Matilda likes them melted on toast though. So rarely, occasionally I buy it.
Mainly though, we don't have anything... we don't do replacements too well.
Cool Christy thanks for that - I'll have a look at coles next time i'm in there. At the moment he eats our fat-reduced cheese so at least it might be slightly better? (and I only say that cos I can't handle full fat dairy, but reduced fat is ok for some reason?)
Sammie - I checked the sugar level - actually less sugar in the oats than in full cream. So !!!
Hun I've been through the ringer with this. It took me months to get into it, took me ages to find out what was going on with the diet stuff. When I had to go off milk myself for Jovie it took me 3 months to get used to reading labels.
