Silk Dairy Free half and half is Fabulous
I discovered this product after searching for a dairy alternative and trying countless varieties. I love Silk dairy free half and half, but it has gotten harder to find now. First Walmart stopped carrying it, then Target, and now Randalls. It’s nowhere to be found in central Texas right now. What’s up? I’m so bummed…
The best non-dairy half and half
I have always been in search of a really good non-dairy half and half and have found it in this product. I can tell the creaminess by how my coffee looks (dark vs light). The coconut milk adds the wonderful nutty flavor and the oats making it creamy. I am puzzled as to why this is so hard to find now. Raley’s here in NorCal stop selling it and Wal-Mart doesn’t have it anymore. Target and Sprout’s, nada. Only other oat milk creamer that is good is Oat-Ly, minus the coconut milk flavor. Target sells it.
Too thick
Way too thick. Once you get halfway down you have to water it down because it’s like pudding
More stores need to carry it! It's the best ever!!
This is the best non dairy coffee cream ever. I can’t find it any more. All the stores are sold out. If accidentally frozen, it will separate and you can see little flakes of oats but it still tastes great!
Silk Half and Half is the best!
This latest version of Silk Non-Dairy Milk, is the best so far, by far! I love it. I don’t use it in coffee, but mainly in cereal and cooking. I hope/wish more stores will be carrying it. My Walmart was carrying it regularly, but is currently out, I hope they re-stock.
Delicious!
This is fantastic! I don’t use anything else for my coffee. I am worried though, because I’m finding it more and more difficult to find in stores. Our Walmarts stopped carrying it, and now Sprouts has too. I can’t live without it! Please tell me it’s not being discontinued.
Love it!!
Tastes great! You’d nvr know it’s an alternative ! Very creamy, too!
Separates
Milk seems to separate when in coffee, leaving white flecks floating in the mug.
SO GOOD
I am trying out a dairy free diet and this has made the switch so much easier. If there wasn’t a hint of coconut taste I would be skeptical that it’s even dairy free! I’ve tried other dairy free creamers and found them all disappointing. I was hoping this one would be an improvement and it exceeded my expectations! In Canada it comes in a brown carton.
Looking for half & half oat coconut
Is this the same Silk creamer oat coconut that was sold in a brown carton, love it and cant seem to find it now. Have you changed the carton colors?
Response from Go Dairy Free
I don’t recall it being brown ever, but this is the oat coconut half and half they offer. They haven’t had an oat coconut creamer, just the half & half. Silk almond creamer was in a brown bottle and it is now white -> https://www.godairyfree.org/product-reviews/silk-almond-creamer
