Is there such thing as ice cream that has no milk or any dairy products in it? If so what is it made from and what does it taste like?

If your looking for an ice cream that contains dairy milk substitutes, we have here in the Philippines. We sometimes use coconut milk instead of dairy products. The taste is still good and they're very nutritious since it comes from the coconut which may help our body to fight some diseases.

Whenever you take something away, and add a substitute, you have an inferior food product.Yes there are ice-creams that have no dairy products added, but they are not worth buying, to say nothing of the nutritional value. Always look for, and buy food products that are made from the real thing. Substituting natural ingredients for artificial additives is only asking for ill health, and a unhealthy lifestyle.

What about people who are allergic to dairy produce? It is asking for ill helath for them to eat ice cream with milk in it rather than substituting it for something else. Also, these products use soya which as far as know is a natural ingredient, not an artificial additive. There are lots of diary free ice creams available. I used to get some but I cant remember the name right now Im afraid.

i think it's not really ice cream but may be substituted for it if you are craving for ice cream and you're lactose intolerant. it's called sorbet. this is more common than ice cream made of soy milk.

hi there, we have in our city a non dairy ice cream made from soya milk. it's really ice cream because it taste like ice cream and it's smooth like the ice cream. this is for those allergic to dairy products and those who are vegetarian who are really strict because ice cream the normal one is made from cow's milk. I'm not into it really because it's much expensive LOL
