I think it tastes great, too! The kind here in US is about the same amount of calcium but has more nutrients overall, especially vitamin e. It's really good on cereal, and I trick my girls into drinking it by putting a little Ovaltine or something in it, but they like the taste now just as is.

Not necessarily, the kind you have may not be fortified. It seems to vary by brand.
I just bought some coconut "milk" (not coconut milk but the milk substitute that is made of coconut) and the kind I got "So Delicious Organic" Coconut Milk Beverage only had 10% calcium, so that's better (less calcium) than the info that I listed in my milk essay. I think it's tastier than the almond milk. Plus OMG the saturated fat is amazingly high! (I know sat. fat is not good for health but they are good for raising testosterone!!)!!! Questions??

I love the almond milk too - not as much as my soy though!!
I am dairy intolerant so no dairy for me.
The brand is Pure Harvest - Organic almond milk original. Does not say if it is fortified or not?
Calcium (mg) 7.5 per 250mls... looking at the dairy I have here for the family it says Calcium 285 mg per 250ml?
