Four out of five of my children are allergic to milk (my oldest son being anaphylactic). I've searched everywhere for Rich Whip but have been unable to find it. I've asked my local stores to stock it to no avail. Hopefully I'll find a way to get it soon:) Thanks for posting this. BTW...I just finished writing & publishing a cookbook, The Milk Allergy Companion & Cookbook. It has been a long 2-year process, but I'm very pleased with the final recipes. If you want to check it out or link our websites, my website is: www.milkallergycompanion.com

I appreciate all that everyone does to help make our world a safer and more educated place for our children and their allergies:)

Sometimes, you just want some whipped up fluffy stuff!! I will add this to my wish list when I cross-border shop.

That Pillsbury flour is just disturbing!!! I'm always looking for the organic flour and wouldn't have bought it but who reads the label on flour?!

The ingredient list on the Rich's Whip is a little creepy but I agree with the idea of not always following the healthy food rules. The ingredient list in Tofutti bothers me too but most of the other brands taste like sweet tofu. Maybe they're good but not really a kid treat. I'm going to scour the area Gordon's for Rich's now.

Cool Whip actually has milk protein, it goes under the tricky label of " SODIUM CASEINATE." While it theoretically shouldn't cause a problem for lactose intolerant people....it can and does cause a problem for those with milk protein allergies and should be avoided by milk allergic people. Blue Can Rich's Whip is the only whip (other than Soyatoo) I've found without any milk protein. Sodium caseinate is in Dream Whip, Cool Whip, off-brand Cool Whips, and the pre-whipped Rich's Whip Topping. Your mother-in-law may be really sensitive, she may like the Blue Can of Chemical Wonder!

Cool Whip is really a mystery to me. I've actually read the ingredients and was stunned to find that it contains no milk at all. But my mother-in-law, who's lactose intollerant, insists that it causes her problems.
