How does that hemp milk taste BTW. Is it similar to soy? Where can you buy it? I tried the hemp protein powder and I almost died. Have you ever tried hemp seeds? Or hemp coffee?

[ellaminnowpea]

Hemp milk is awesome. I drink the plain living harvest brand. It tastes different than soy but I can't drink the milk, so hemp milk works out. I've never had hemp protein but I do use the seeds when I'm not using the milk. They're really awesome! Never had hemp coffee, either. I usually stick to fairtrade south american blends.

[Kitteh]

I'd like to try hemp milk, I don't think we can get it here, not sure.

Today

[ellaminnowpea]

I think I'll try making some carrot lentil soup tonight (though its like 9:30pm...). Suppose I'll be up for another 6 hours, I'll make it useful.
