NOW Foods, Organic Soy Milk Powder, Instant Mix Dairy Alternative, Non-GMO, 20-Ounce (Packaging May Vary)

This product is fantastic! It is all pros and no cons! First of all when you buy plant milks in usual package at Walmart you are spending most of the money for an expensive wax covered box and plastic cap and color printing that ends up in the landfill. Also, the std offerings are mostly just water and have significant added calcium and sodium which you don't need sometimes. Why pay to package and haul water around the country and pasteurize and refrigerate it. You can use this soy milk powder to constitute your own recipe that will be richer in flavor and involves essentially no packaging. ONE ingredient in this bag and organic too! I always wished my almond milk or whatever was more creamy but without added gums and thickeners, and this product is the solution. I blend a couple of tablespoons into a cup of dry steel cut oats and add water and then stir it around til homogeneous. Then add banana slices and fruit and let that sweeten it up as it all "cooks" (with no kwh needed) for a while. I learned to add just a tiny dash of salt to the mix. Voila! Perfect muesli with soy. Digests perfectly! No packaging, no refrigerating, little clean up. This is perfect food for van lifers too who don't want a refrigerator or to use extra kwh. Highly recommend!! Can you get any healthier than a bowl of steel cut oats, soy and fruit? NO, it is the ultimate for you mind and body and microbiome that keeps it all working like a well oiled machine...and good for the environment too!

The media could not be loaded. In regards to other reviews, I have no trouble with solubility of the soy powder. I use my battery powered mini whisk ($10 on Amazon) and it dissolves quickly and completely in a few seconds and creates a delicious foam layer on top of the coffe. The finely ground soy helps buffer the acidity of the coffee and tempers the absorption of caffeine so you don't get the heart thump when caffeine hits the bloodstream. We also use the soy added to chocolate almond milk as a treat. I'm enjoying a soy laced, decaf espresso martini at the time of writing this, I feel it cuts down on GERD symptoms. The NOW brand organic soy powder stays consisistenly suspended throughout the drink until gone- doesn't sink to the bottom.

Look, it is not going to taste amazing, its dry soy and nothing else. But if you are worried about gums and fillers and emulsifiers than this is a great value where you can make a decent amount of soy milk. I found mixing this with filtered water either in a blender or shaking in a mason jar to be pretty easy. I did not get clumps when I used a blender, and only a little when I hand shook in a mason. It has a great protein content, and its lovely that it is shelf stable since it is dry. I do think the flavor is more nutty than most soy milks, which could be a pro or con for you depending on you preference. For now I prefer Trader Joes organic soy milk which is ready made, cheap, and only 2 ingredients, but if that ever goes away, or I move somewhere else, I would gladly purchase this product again.

This does not smell or taste good at all. I do not think the soy has gone bad, I just think that's the flavor. But I cannot tolerate it and I've had some pretty nasty shakes in the past.You have to eat FOUR tablespoons just to get 8 grams of protein!! It mixes easily enough as it is a nice fine powder, but the awful taste is too much. This is not for me. I would return it if I could.

For a single person household, i don't think i'd buy this again. There's just not much savings to be had for all the trouble. I happen to like soy milk with my granola in the morning. So, initially i thought i'd save a little by mixing my own. And, that's just it. There's not a great enough savings to be had when i compare the time and mess it takes to mix it vs walking into a store and buying the shelf stable option. There's also the mess: Make sure you use a wide mouth jar with a cap that seals if you're making a quart or so at a time. I actually used a narrow mouth glass 64 oz bottle that required the use of a funnel-- it was akin to water torture. (I'm not the most patient person either.) This is no reflection at all the quality of the product. It turned out a creamy looking, tasty product. It's just the process that's too much for me.

does not dissolve in water well enough, it forms lumps when you add hot water. Even if you use the paste method (add some water and use egg whip to stir into paste form) then add water, it still forms sesame-size lumps.

What I like about this soy powder is the health benefits. I use it for a replacement for milk in my breakfast cereals. It doesn't taste nearly as good as "Better Than Milk" soy powder, but it is okay. I only use it for putting on my cereal or making mashed potatoes. I would never just make a glass of it to drink as a beverage. But I am happy with it. It also doesn't stay mixed up if you put it in the refrigerator over night. You have to shake it before using it. Better Than Milk does stay mixed up because of the emulsifiers and other additives. This soy powder has absolutely no additives. It also has a 100 rating in the Yuka App that I scan all of my food items with. Better Than Milk only has a 27 rating in the Yuka App because of all of the additives.
