    Damn it, just why? do they have to put some small amount of crap into perfectly good food? As if I’d ever notice a difference in the taste of rice milk without this barley stuff? I’m sure there’s some Modern Food Processing & Safety reason for it, but ugh.

    I love enriched Rice Dream just because I like it, but also it’s a source of vitamin B-12 that I need. Homemade rice milk seems to go bad instantly — maybe because I’m skipping the barley amylase, ha ha.

    As always, thank you GFWD for what you do.
