Hay has developed a gut problem which she's managed to trace, she thinks, to milk and a post-menopausal change in her ability to process it. This has resulted in her moving to soya milk as a trial. I consider Soya milk to be the Devil's invention; however, it's brilliant for making her coffee in the evenings as I can bung it in the microwave and it never boils over (I take my coffee black). With ordinary milk, I put it on high for 2 minutes, keeping an eye on it to catch it before it boils over at anywhere from 40 seconds remaining. With the soya milk I can just forget about it till the microwave bings. Sure it boils, but it doesn't explode like cow's milk.
Damned stuff costs an arm and a leg though, but Hay is reporting fewer gut transit symptoms. That said, I blame her problems on the vast quantities of vegetables we're now eating following having bought Rukmini Iyer's The Green Roasting Tin book. Must say I'm totally sold on her books.
