As the temperature approaches 90 degrees, you might be craving ice cream. Yesterday, I certainly was, and found myself at Whole Foods buying a pint of this and a pint of that. When I got home, I realized that I'd stumbled upon one of the most delicious ice creams in existence: Laloo's Goat's Milk Ice Cream. Whole Foods carries the Black Mission Fig, Deep Chocolate, Molasses Tipsycake and Vanilla Snowflake flavors. (I'm now on the lookout for Strawberry Darling: strawberries swirled in a balsamic vinegar reduction!)
The creamy, custardy Vanilla Snowflake was quite possibly the best vanilla ice cream I've ever eaten. (I enjoyed it with some Nairn's ginger biscuits and some ripe, plump California cherries.) Amazingly, I preferred the vanilla to the Deep Chocolate, which, although excellent, was slightly less rich than I expected.
The Molasses Tipsycake was a cinnamony, oatmeal-cookie-crumbled, raisin-studded affair. (Ben and Jerry's, eat your heart out!)
For those of you who aren't fond of the distinctive taste of goat's milk (I love it), Laloo's ice cream is quite mild.

I am lactose intolerant. There are ways around it so you can live without the fear of getting sick. You must find alternative food sources that make you happy and don't make you sick. I found an ice cream product that makes me feel like I am normal. It's called Laloo's Goat Milk Ice Cream. Goat milk, while it is still a milk, has different make up than cow milk. It has smaller proteins which help humans digest it. Laloos (www.laloos.com) has a bunch of tasty flavors and it doesn't make my stomach hurt. Another added benefit is that it is healthier (fat and calorie content lower) than traditional cow ice cream products. So just because you are LI, doesn't mean you can't eat healthier and enjoy yummy foods.
Um... this post was *about* Laloos! :-)
