I have just decided on a whim that I no longer want to support the dairy industry and cut it out of my diet cold turkey. I've already trialed a run and I felt great but it was so difficult. Never realized how much dairy was in my diet in basically everything I ate and it wasn't long before I ran out of things to eat that didn't contain it. Even subjected myself to eating cereal with water which was extremely unpleasant. It's been hard but I know you're the community to ask for help because you've probably went through this sort of thing before.

    Is Margarine actually non-dairy? I always thought it was just a chemically synthesized alternative of the same molecule. Psyllium husk... huh never heard of that one before. I should look into it.

      margarine can have dairy, but at its base it's just vegetable oil with a stabiliser to make it harden

      Pretty much all margarine sold where I live is made of vegetable oil so.

      Just make sure it doesn't have any added cream or anything.

        apparently where I live it's illegal to sell marge that contains dairy. That's good to know and makes my life so much easier.
