This is the current list of the ones we have at the program. They are the ones we found that are readily available and have the least harmful nutrition numbers (calories, fat, sugar, etc). There may be others out there that are either the same numbers or better and if you think you find one, please let us know.

We do not “recommend” the consumption of liquid calories. We recommend limiting their use, if used at all, to nothing more then a condiment (a splash on your cereal or in your tea or coffee).
In health

Thanks. That's what I meant. I couldn't imaging drinking it by the glass.

It's not on the list Jeff linked to. But I like the taste, and I like the stats:
1 cup = 90 calories, only 9 of them (1 g.) from fat. That's 10% of total calories.
No trans or saturated fat at all. No oil (many rice and soy milks do have oil).
Sodium is slightly high at 100 mg. I believe that's just over Jeff's recommendation of a 1:1 calories-to-sodium ratio.

In my humble professional and personal opinion, since we use so little of them, why not just make one at home. My favorite is rice milk and can easily be made as follows
1 cup cooked brown rice
4 cups water
1 tsp vanilla (optional)
Blend well and strain (if desired).
Many people (including forum members) use this recipe and some have a similar oat milk recipe that you can find (or ask for) in the recipe forum.
We are not asking for perfection because by using them, you have already fallen short

Ouch.
