[-]

ZaharaSararie@reddit

People most likely don't think you're dumb. They probably see frozen milk as a more acceptable and less intense unsweetened frozen treat, compared to a stick of butter, which would be a lot more intense and dense, even if it were sweetened.

Equivalent-Sink4612@reddit

Can I ask you- do you have a favorite brand(are you in the US?) I liked it, so much better than soy milk or rice milk, definitely on par/slightly better than almond milk. Don't remember the brand, my partner did not like it at all, unfortunately.

I have no issues with lactose/cow milk, but my partner has liver/gall bladder issues, so I would happily give it up for an alternative if it's better for him. Not much of a milk drinker/cereal person anyway (but he is), just half and half for coffee, and cheese. Not giving that up, no way no how. Something different for the coffee would be fine.

[-]

carolineo@reddit

I love Oatly!

[-]

Equivalent-Sink4612@reddit

Good to know, thank-you!! Have you tried a lot of brands?

[-]

carolineo@reddit

Yeah, I've been making an iced espresso drink at home almost every day lately so I have tried my fair share of them! The Califia Farms 'extra creamy' one is really good too. I'm willing to bet most non-corporate coffee shops would give you a taster sample of their oat milk if you're trying to find one you like without buying gallon after gallon!

[-]

Equivalent-Sink4612@reddit

Well I appreciate the tips!! This is my second try at it, so there's not a lot of leeway. I will have to do all of the testing, and then be like, "I swear, this one is really good! Pleeeeeeease try it." And I will have to be very thorough in my testing, my partner's a scientific minded guy, it would probably help my case if I made a spreadsheet, lol:)

[-]

Delicious-Summer5071@reddit

My partner loves Planet Oat. It has sweetened, unsweetend, one that is creamier (her favorite), one designed for coffee/espresso drinks, and just... regular. They also make oatmilk coffee creamers that she said were decent, she just likes the regular more.

We get it at Walmart so it's not hidden in fancy grocery stores, which is nice.

[-]

Equivalent-Sink4612@reddit

Wow, that sounds pretty good, and good to know I can get it at Walmart!! I'm encouraged now, last time I tried oat milk I think there was only one brand. They've come a long way, it seems. I was thinking I'd have to make the trek out to Wholefoods. Thank-you so much!!!

[-]

Delicious-Summer5071@reddit

I was raised on skim milk, so I'm 100% a whole milk kind of person, but even I can admit that it tastes pretty good. We've cooked with it too without any real change in flavor- though we made sure not to use the the vanilla (?) kind. Walmart has other brands too if you want to try a bunch 😁 You're very welcome!

[-]

Equivalent-Sink4612@reddit

Oh I love whole milk, you know what's what:) I even get heavy cream sometimes...VERY rarely, just to cook with, you know;)

Well, I'm kind of excited about my oat milk exploration, lol!

[-]

aurora_rain1377@reddit

Oatly is really good, especially the Barista Edition in the grey box.

[-]

Equivalent-Sink4612@reddit

Nice that they have a Barista edition, that's encouraging:) and Oatly seems easy enough to find.

[-]

angelok91@reddit

For coffee Chobani Extra Creamy is the way to go. You can’t tell the difference from whole fat milk.

Oatly which is available everywhere is too thin, silky and changes the flavor of the coffee. Even their barista version is too thin in my opinion but a better option than the regular. But others may like that though.

Planet Oat, Mooala, and Califia just doesn’t taste good to me.

For cereal, you really can’t tell the difference so I just use the Costco brand.

[-]

Equivalent-Sink4612@reddit

Wow, thanks so much for your comprehensive reply, very helpful!:)

You are right about the creaminess/texture being important for coffee, and not throwing off the coffee flavor.

I will try to find the Chobani Extra Creamy, and maybe try a store brand.

[-]

WifeOfSpock@reddit (OP)

It’s really easy to make yourself, if you can’t find one you like.

Is it?? I might have to try that!! Seems like it would be easier than almond milk, and definitely cheaper.

Thank-you so much!! I'm kind of excited about it, lol:)

[-]

Lyress@reddit

Not in the US sorry. I'm in Finland and I just buy the supermarket brands. I like them more than oatly.

[-]

Equivalent-Sink4612@reddit

Yes, Oatly was the brand I tried. Well, I am of Finnish descent, I would trust your assessment of dairy/dairy adjacent pructs:)

May be worth a trip to Trader Joe's or Wholefoods to check out their selections. Thanks!!!

If you haven't gone in a while, you may want to consider seeing a dentist for a checkup, since sensitivity can be a sign of some issues (e.g. wife had tooth sensitivity to coldfor years until she saw a dentist. She found out one of her gums was receding and required a graft, which mostly resolved the issue)

If you go regularly and already know you're good, sorry for the bother.

I see. I am sorry about that. If going to Mexico isn't an option, then maybe you can find a dental school relatively close?

…not the same poster, but I’m in New Hampshire? I’ve never seen a mostly white block of butter.

A lot of American butter is from grain-fed cows, which makes it paler. If you're from Europe or Australia/NZ, it looks basically white compared to what you're used to.

It would cause me great suffering but I'd still like the taste, more than likely

Yeah the common consensus seems to be OP was either feeding their kid butter or soap 😭

Have you tried giving her some frozen gogurt tubes? Might just be that the crunch is satisfying

ebolaRETURNS@reddit

have you avoided introducing them to popsicles?

[-]

WifeOfSpock@reddit (OP)

They’ll have them sometimes but i never really gave them anything overly sugared growing up.
When they were really small, I’d make them breastmilk and fruit puree popsicles to help with the heat or teething.

And if they have regular popsicles, I tend to prefer to make them myself. They get to choose their juice flavor, and add what they want.

My kid loves frozen tomato paste

[-]

notabigmelvillecrowd@reddit

How do you even figure out something like this?

[-]

Berbers1@reddit

When ever I opened a can of paste, he likes to eat it. I freeze the remaining paste in about 2 Tbsp portions, he likes the frozen portions too.

[-]

lih9@reddit

I freeze pasta sauce in ice cube trays overnight when i'm meal prepping and sometimes catch my kid snacking on them. That might be it.

[-]

bro0t@reddit

Probably the kid eating tomato paste going “this, but instead its ice cream”

Just guessing though

Ok, when I was in Mexico, they would sell something like this. It was the milk in a carton. The ones that aren't refrigerated. They would mix this milk with chocolate or strawberry mix like nesquik or banana or even cantaloupe. Then they'd put it in these thick plastic bags. Tie the top in a knot and throw it in a freezer. When they're frozen, just cut off the corner and enjoy. I loved those things. Just an idea for the summer. They'd be fun for her to make and all the different flavors to choose from.

[-]

QueezyF@reddit

What’s funny is I know about those from a particularly unflattering picture of one made with Oreos posted on this sub. They look pretty damn good though.

[-]

doggysmomma420@reddit

I don't know how I'd feel about the oreo, but they are good. I'd buy them all the time in Mexico, but then I just started making my own.

[-]

WifeOfSpock@reddit (OP)

Im Filipina, and we have something similar. Called them ice candy growing up. Same type of mix and also in a bag, though tube shaped.

[-]

doggysmomma420@reddit

They're called bolis in Mexico. Aren't they great? They definitely helped when the summer heat was bad. I might have to make some this summer now that I'm thinking about them, lol.

[-]

Felicior_Augusto@reddit

My nephew likes his ice cream melted. He'll ask for a bowl and leave it until he can just drink it.

[-]

almostkindamaybeidk@reddit

I did this growing up in Asia, but with juice box cartons! We'd cut open the top then drink/eat with a straw and spoon.

[-]

WifeOfSpock@reddit (OP)

I got stuff like that growing up in Hawai’i, too. I’d love the frozen juice cups they’d pass out during outside events(called them “ice cakes”).

[-]

QueezyF@reddit

Reminds me of the homemade juice pops I’d make as a kid. I remember the orange ones being really sour.

[-]

obscuremarble@reddit

One question...you said you had her put it in a Ziploc in the freezer. Does that mean she returns to it later after it's been melty? Hahah

[-]

WifeOfSpock@reddit (OP)

Today’s the hottest day it’s been in a while, so the melty ick factor is recent🤣

[-]

NuffMusic@reddit

frozen fucking milk?

[-]

Ilikechickenwings1@reddit

I thought it was frozen mash potatoes

Gandalf_the_Tegu@reddit

Meanwhile i thought it was candles.... my elementary did mini shop classes way back when, as a form of making. Hristmas gifts for our parents kor whoeever we gifted to) and one was making candles. She had a pot of the wax melted and we had to bring a milk carton in, add wick, and pore the wax into carton. Let harden. Then we repped open the carton and decorated the candle. Conclusion, it looked like this before kids decorated it. 😅 haha.

Trust me, I try to make adjustments, but she loves it this way🤣
