And the list goes on and on. If you cook, just substitute “safe” margarine for butter and “safe” milk for regular and voila!

The basic thing to remember is that you can have all fruits and veggies; most meat, poultry and fish preparations (obviously without cheese or cream sauces); not many sweet baked goods (muffins, cakes, etc.); some plain baked goods (bagels, wheat bread); few desserts (maybe some fruit-based). So concentrate on the fruits/veg. and you'll be
fine.

And here’s a list of ingredients to avoid while on a milk free diet:

artificial butter flavor
butter
butter fat
butter oil
buttermilk
casein (casein hydrosylate)
Caseinates (in all forms)
Cheese
Cream
Cottage cheese
Curds
Custard
Ghee
Half & Half
Lactalbumin
Lactalbumin phosphate
Lactoferrin
Lactulose
Milk (in all forms including condensed, derivative, dry, evaporated, goat’smilk, and milk for other animals, low-fat, malted, milkfat, non-fat, powder, protein, skimmed, solids, whole).
Nougat
Naturlose (sweetener derived from whey)
Pudding
Rennet casein
Sour cream
Sour cream solids
Sour milk solids
Tagatose (sweetener derived from whey)
Whey (in all forms)
Yogurt

According to FAAN, These products DO NOT contain milk:
Calcium Lactate
Calcium Stearoyl Lactylate
Cocoa Butter
Cream of Tarter
Lactic Acid (however, lactic acid starter culture may contain milk)
Oleoresin
Sodium lactate
Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate


Keep in mind that derivatives can be hidden in some unsuspecting places (ie., Hylands Teething Tablets, Trident gum, brown sugar flavoring, canned tuna, some vitamins, some deli meats, some toothpastes, some soap products, etc.) so it is crucial to read every label.

I literally have about four copies, one at home, in the car, my purse and the office and I am always reading it to get new ideas. I picked up several of the Hormel and other little things in the small 7 oz containers.  If it makes you feel any better, last night Jack threw ALL of his food which ended up either in the dog's mouth or on the dog's back. The dog has never eaten so well!! I told DH that I really enjoyed spending about 30 minutes putting together a meal so the dog could eat it! Jack ended up eating watermelon, baked apples, Ritz and about 2 peas! And, yesterday he loved the chix and dumplings and today his day care note said "Jack did not care for the chix and dumplings".  Go figure!! I am not going to get the nutrition of the year award.  See if you can find Road's End dairy free mac and cheese shells. Jack loves them. If you can't, let me know and I can send you a few boxes.

I picked up some of these items in the grocery store and read the labels and they contain soybean oil. Is this list a milk free list only? I am confused. (Doesn't take much these days.)

Thanks

Brenda
