I am thinking of eliminating milk from my diet. I like milk on my cereal. What can I substitute for milk on cereal? How about soy-milk? Lance

I once had granola with apple juice (we ran out of milk unexpectedly). It wasn't half bad but I still prefer milk.

It gives the flavors of the cereal and the fruit a chance to come thru. You get some strange looks in restaurants, but you're probably used to that by now. Don Henson Infosys Consulting

Almond milk, rice milk, soy milk, or amasake (fermented rice milk). Amasake is by far the best tasting and can be found in some health food stores. If you switch to eating hot cereals you don't even need these. Avinash Marathe {ihnp4,allegra,decwrl}!amd!ubvax!avinash

It helps if you use ripe, juicy fruit. I always use a banana, and depending what else is in season, add berries, pears, apples, plums, etc. It takes a bit of getting used to, what with all the extra chewing needed, but it's really delicious, and I believe, healthier. I think apple juice would be decent, but why make it into mush??? -- Maurice Weitman 9600 ..!{hplabs,lll-crg,ptsfa,glacier}!well!mo | 57600 (415)549-0280 voice (415)549-0388 modem-2400 this^is not 300 mcimail mweitman source bdk788 a pipe 110 P.

Just to spread the strange looks around, I also sometimes use water on my cereal, and agree with Don (it does taste good, and you do get strange looks, especially from roommates). Soy milk, though, has the advantage of complementing the proteins found in cereal grains. -- Scott Anderson ihnp4!oddjob!kaos!sra

When it hasn't been available, I've been known to use orange juice. You haveto be careful what kinds of cereal you use it with, though - don't try itwith Grape Nuts (tm). Other kinds ofjuice would be interesting, also -- think aboutthe texture of some relatively hardy cereal with Tomato juice. I'm not even going to mention (well, if you insist.......) the Breakfast of Ex-Champions --- Rice Krispies and beer. It goes snap, crackle, and burp... (I think I've read too much of net.jokes lately...) Forgive any errors in etiquette - this is only my second posting ever. - Aliza R. Panitz

O. Box 10019 Berkeley, CA 94709 A veggie restaurant in the Chicago area (now defunct) used to make a milk substitute as follows: 1. Blend water with raw almonds 2. Pass the mixture through cheesecloth to eliminate the roughage 3. Cook to thicken Another use for this "milk" was to mix the milk with tomato sauce, tomato puree, and cooked brown rice to make an outstanding cream of tomato soup. Sorry I don't have any measurements, but you won't be too far off by just experimenting around. By the way, an excellent book with directions for soy milk and other soy products is: The Farm Vegetarian Cookbook, Edited by Louise Hagler, The Book Publishing Company, ISBN 0-913990-18-3
