Last year, I tried So Delicious coconut nog, and I really enjoyed it. This year I decided to try Silk seasonal nog, soymilk's tribute to egg nog.
Perhaps still prejudiced by the 1970s hysteria about soy being a virtual communist plot, I was hesitant. I do drink soymilk every morning in my smoothies, I eat veggie burgers and veggie sausage with soy, Cool Whip and Cremora...so it's not as though I'm soy phobic.
Yet every time I try a new soy product, I experience an irrational..."Ewww, this is unnatural!" (Really? Drinking eggs and cream is not more natural than a liquid made from plants, right?) Knowing that's irrational, I proceed.
As I mentioned, I tried the flavor known as seasonal nog. Another flavor, chocolate mint, is also available.
Once again, I'm really happy I did. It does not taste like soymilk. It tastes exactly like "regular" egg nog and has a texture most similar to Byrne Dairy's light egg nog.
Had I realized Silk nog offered a money back guarantee if I didn't like it, I would have been enjoying it for years.
Verdict: mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
