re: what is the attraction of almond milk?

I cut my dairy down to see if it helps my cholesterol. I'm 31, extremely fit, but got the bad news of high cholesterol, doc thinks it may be genetic or im hyper sensitive to foods high in cholesterol. So I buy half gallon of milk and half gallon of almond milk. I can't drink the regular shite, its too watery. I've found Blue Mountain reduced sugar vanilla to be the best compromise.
