Very gmo friendly Companies.Costco is their number 1 client, Trader joe's is number 2. I guess marketing really works on Americans... Big German conglomerate buys up California company and puts surfboards on their bags, what a crock... If a company is so secretive.. their has to be a reason.... remember the peanut butter recall!! remember in Texas. Regular food companies manufactured for them. No Natural food companies got peanut butter recalls. Wake up.... Maybe you should read the lawsuit in San Francisco about fraud labeling at Trader Joe's.<br />I would never never shop there.The real dealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09678303481901047094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8233184155385734517.post-14644860075491650952014-01-26T13:26:31.886-05:002014-01-26T13:26:31.886-05:00My instinct is no.

Milk does some very specific things when it heats; no idea whether almond milk will break or misbehave when it's heated.<b>Matthew Hooper</b>https://www.blogger.com/profile/18310137375417841230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8233184155385734517.post-21652261182426225262012-08-30T20:29:22.416-04:002012-08-30T20:29:22.416-04:00I'd like to try a dairy-free version of this. ...I'd like to try a dairy-free version of this.

Then the conquistadors came, drank, and loved it! The beans were brought back to Europe as one of the greatest treasures. Refined sugar and milk were added to sweeten it for the general populace...and chocolate history was made =)DawnStarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04151369240324472623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8233184155385734517.post-4665145472174532922012-02-19T23:58:29.372-05:002012-02-19T23:58:29.372-05:00You could experiment adding dry milk power, if you...You could experiment adding dry milk power, if you want to make it with water.

I fill my big mug with milk but leave enough room so that I can stir it pretty vigorously without spilling any. I heat the milk for two minutes in the microwave. This makes it warm enough to dissolve most but not all of the hot chocolate (in my case, Sipping Chocolate, also from Trader Joe's). Then, I put in the sipping chocolate and stir. There are still some clumps, so I heat it in the microwave for another minute or so. Now, it's nice and hot, and when I stir a second time, everything dissolves perfectly.korean_darknesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01042028603346708558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8233184155385734517.post-58575133235809097892012-02-07T20:44:09.851-05:002012-02-07T20:44:09.851-05:00I do SOOO agree.
