Oatly Healthy Oat Alternative to Cream

As I mentioned in my previous review for Oatly Oat Drink, my mother was looking for an alternative to cow's milk and soya milk so she gave Oatly a try. As she and I both really liked the Oatly Oat Drink, we decided to give the Oatly Alternative to Cream a try. Oatly Alternative to Cream comes in small cartons of 250ml that look very similar to the cartons of Oatly Oat Drink but are much smaller and therefore easier to carry. They are available in some grocery stores but not in my local store so I have to order it from Goodness Direct. It costs around £1 per carton. Oatly Alternative to Cream contains water, oats and salt just like regular Oatly ...  Read the complete review

Over the years hearing all the bad things about caws milk I switched on goats milk but eventually got fed up with it as it goes off too quickly. My fridge is not the best in the world but I am not going to go spend a lot of money on a new fridge for the sake of milk. First I switched to Soya milk for about an year. First it tasted rather bad but I got used to it. Then I reed a whole lot of conspiracys surrounding Soya milk and I knew I have to stop using it as I did not wanted to be part of any of that. I thought myself that there must be something else out there that I can switch too again and so looking around supermarkets and keeping an eye on things ...  Read the complete review

I was very pleased when I discovered Oatly dairy-free alternative to cream, as being lactose intolerant I have found there are very few options for substituting store-cupboard items, especially as I absolutely detest the taste of soya milk and other soya products! I bought Oatly to try as I desparately wanted a curry, and unbelievably every single ready meal curry and jar of curry cooking sauce contained some sort of dairy product! So I found a recipe to make my own (Im not usually that domesticated!), and headed to Tesco because I remembered seeing the Oatly cream there. The Oatly cream describes itself as a "healthy alternative to ...  Read the complete review

Oatly wouldn't be my first choice for milk- but for those who, are like me, intolerant to lactose and soya- it is a good alterntive. It costs £1.37 for a packet containing a litre. It is a dairy free alternative to milk and helps lower cholesterol. It also contains oat fibre and is enriched with vitamins. If you drink a 250 ml glass you will get just over a third of your daily calcium recommended daily intake. It also has no added sugar and is low in saturated fat. As an alternative to cold milk in your porridge or on your cereal it is fine as long as you remember to shake the packet before each serving. I would not recommend it for use in hot drinks, unless like me you ...  Read the complete review

This has 55 calories per 100ml with 1.5g fat, 0.2g of which are saturates. Made from pure oats, the carton states, “A chocolate drink enriched with calcium and vitamins. Free from milk and Soya and packed with great taste.” This was more of an impulse buy in the supermarket this week. There was a woman stood at the end of the aisle giving out samples of this, so my daughter and I tried it. It didn’t taste too bad, so I decided to buy this and also the plain version. The chocolate milk smells like chocolate milkshake, which is a good start! It tastes very powdery, and leaves a dry after taste in my mouth. It doesn’t have too much chocolate taste, but ...  Read the complete review
