About SILK Light Plain, soymilk
Soy milk is a creamy plant-based drink made by soaking, grinding, and straining soybeans, then cooking the liquid until smooth. It has been a staple in East Asia for centuries and has become the go-to dairy alternative for people who are vegan, lactose intolerant, or simply cutting back on animal products. What sets it apart from most plant milks is protein: a cup delivers about 7 grams, rivaling cow's milk, along with roughly 80 to 100 calories, heart-friendly unsaturated fat, and, when fortified, calcium, vitamin D, and vitamin B12.
Soybeans also supply isoflavones, plant compounds studied for their role in heart and bone health. Unsweetened soy milk works beautifully in coffee, smoothies, oatmeal, and baking, while sweetened and flavored versions make an easy glass on their own. It is also the base for tofu and soy yogurt. Give the carton a good shake, keep it refrigerated once opened, and use it within about a week.
