Good for you!!
Salsa is my answer to everything! I have been putting salsa on top my potatoes for some time now, even before changing my diet.
It can be as simple as salt, pepper and some herbs. A dollop of hommus on top is also wonderful. Even some spicy bean dip...yum. Just keep reading those labels.
There are also vegan cheese substitutes, although I have never tried any.
Best of luck to you on your new journey.Meet me in a land of hope and dreams. -Bruce Springsteen

I think I'm going to see if I can find some "dairy" products (butter, maybe sour cream & cheese) made from goat's milk b/c I understand by definition "dairy" refers to cow's milk products.DX 10/2008

Hi toomny~ I agree on your definition of dairy free. That's what my nutritionist told me. So I eat goat products...mainly cheese and feta. I also eat soy products.
I used to be so strict, but after so many years, have eased up a little bit. I've even eaten an ice cream sandwich and it was delightful1st sx '89 Dx '99 w/RRMS - SP since 2010

Hmm. Certainly Soy Milk is non dairy by the strictest definition. But I wouldn't call goats milk dairy free.
Comes from the breast of a mammal = dairy = milk
Comes from a plant = non-dairy
Can there be any other definition? I don't think so. Some people believe goats milk is OK for people with MS, but it's still dairy.

You know, you're right BigA!!! And I stand corrected. Sorry about that - Whew - this is how misinformation here gets generated.
I am somewhat lactose intolerant, but can handle goat products better than cow...so nutritionist gave me the Ok on this...

According to the theory as to why milk is bad for MS, it's the butyrophilin. I'm not sure if this is in casein, but according to Dr. Jelinek, we should avoid all casein, which you can find in many "non-dairy" products such as soy cheese.

Highjacked my own thread!
Originally posted by JerryD View PostIsn't the problem with dairy really the casein ? Does goat milk still qualify if it doesn't contain casein ? I am also lactose intolerant and I am now avoiding all milk products. But I know very little about goat and sheep and such.
Dr Google also said that there is slightly less lactose in goat milk
I believe I have a mild lactose intolerance so I'll be anxious to see how DF affects me.DX 10/2008
