Kkdvm Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 So I know that the "SO Delicious" coconut milk "product" is out of the question because of the carageenan. This yogurt-type product doesn't have carageenan or any added sugar. Is it Whole30 approved? Ingredients: ORGANIC COCONUT MILK (WATER, ORGANIC COCONUT CREAM), CHICORY ROOT EXTRACT, PECTIN, ALGIN, MAGNESIUM PHOSPHATE, TRICALCIUM PHOSPHATE, RICE STARCH, LOCUST BEAN GUM, LIVE CULTURES, GUAR GUM, DIPOTASSIUM PHOSPHATE, GELLAN GUM, XANTHAN GUM, VITAMIN D2, VITAMIN B12 Here's the link... http://sodeliciousdairyfree.com/products/cultured-coconut-milk/unsweetened-cultured-coconut-milk Thanks for your help!

snowflower Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I'd say no because of the rice starch. I'd also say no just because there are a LOT of ingredients there that are unfamiliar. And to me unfamiliar = highly processed = not worth eating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missmary Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 correct, this is a no because of rice starch. I would also avoid anything with chicory root extract, which is a sweetener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlennR Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Algin and pectin are also polysaccharides (sugars). I didn't even bother googling the chemical-y sounding ingredients, because why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vian Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 If you really want yogurt, get a yogurt maker and mix probiotic capsules in with coconut milk for 8-12ish hours. bam, coconut milk yogurt with no added crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but to be clear for new readers: although it would be ok to make some unsweetened coconut milk yogurt to use, say, in an indian sauce, it would not be ok to make some unsweetened coconut milk yogurt and have it with fruit for breakfast during the whole30. Changing the "Breakfast food" mindset is TOUGH for people, but it is really important. don't skip that part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beets Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 As Miss Mary said, I think it's important to not use the yogurt crutch during the w30. The idea is to fill your plate w protein + veg + fat as per the template. Eating yogurt, even if technically "compliant," isn't going to help you fully appreciate the benefits of the w30.

Vian Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 That's a good point, missmary. Thanks for adding that. I'm planning to make coconut milk yogurt just for the probiotics. I can't tolerate the capsules, they upset my stomach, and I can't have other fermented foods because of the yeast (AIP). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamond_Doula Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Speaking of So Delicious, I bought their coconut milk today because I do not see carageenan listed? Did I perhaps buy an updated version of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Speaking of So Delicious, I bought their coconut milk today because I do not see carageenan listed? Did I perhaps buy an updated version of i Are you sure? Their website still lists carrageenan in the ingredients of the unsweetened coconut milk.

Diamond_Doula Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 So it looks like I bought the unsweeted Vanilla Coconut milk, I am pretty sure the Vanilla makes it whole30 non compliant. Glad I've been using the canned stuff. My daughter drinks it, she's lactose intolerent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both that and the vanilla extract make it non-compliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
