Review of GRAN GUSTO LATTE - Valsoia by gingersaint
🇬🇧 As soon as I saw it I grabbed it to make a comparison with Alpro's Shhh.
I was hoping this was better, or almost equal to start buying this one to support an Italian company, but unfortunately between the two - in terms of taste - Alpro is a win-win: on the other hand, this one comes up perfectly frothy and the foam stays quite held.
The difference between the two at full price is 30 cents, it's not a bad product so don't rule it out from buying it again in case of a discount.
🇮🇹 Appena l'ho visto l'ho preso per poter fare un paragone con lo Shhh di Alpro.
Speravo fosse migliore, o simile perché avrei preso più volentieri questo per sostenere un'azienda italiana, però purtroppo tra i due in termini di gusto vince quello di Alpro: di contro questo monta perfettamente e la schiuma tiene bene.
La differenza tra i due a prezzo pieno è di 30 centesimi, non è un cattivo prodotto perciò non escluderlo di acquistarlo nuovamente in caso di offerta.

serenasofia Ma in termini di sapore, somiglia al latte o è come il "Non è latte" della Alpro? Reply
gingersaint Io lo definirei un Non è latte che non ce l’ha fatta, almeno non del tutto. È un po’ più dolce dello Shhh (non eccessivamente) ma non somiglia eccessivamente al latte, mentre lo Shhh per quanto non uguale richiama di più il sapore del latte a lunga conservazione, che per motivi non chiari il mio cervello ricorda perfettamente anche se sono 12 anni che non lo bevo 1 likeReply
serenasofia Ok... Mi hai incuriosita. Spero di trovarlo, prima o poi! 1 likeReply
gingersaint Io l’ho trovato al Bennet, ma credo che la Valsoia vanti una distribuzione abbastanza capillare. Se costassero meno dei 3€ che costano li userei più di frequente, per ora lo Shhh lo utilizzo per fare la besciamella e i budini, ma non posso farmi il cappuccino perché non monta. Questo monta ma non è ai livelli dell’altro e secondo me è un po’ troppo dolce per le preparazioni salate. *ansia*Reply
serenasofia Qui il Bennet non c'è... Purtroppo lo cerco da parecchio, ma anche il Non è latte si trova solo al Sole365. 😞 E onestamente, se devo spendere assai, preferisco ancora il Protein della Alpro. Però sono curiosa! 1 likeReply
gingersaint Io mi lancio nel buio e provo sempre tutto quello che non conosco perché penso che magari mi sto perdendo chissà che cosa 😂 80% delle volte non è così ma mi giustifico dicendomi che contribuisco al business della branca vegetale 1 likeReply
geb Da quel che leggo pare uno di quel latti resi grassi grazie agli olii inseriti dentro.
Non mi sorprendo quindi se sia meno buono se preso da sé, però questo dovrebbe, come hai detto te, essere più adatto come base di cappuccino.
Secondo me, a naso, ci sta anche per fare torte o altre ricette dolci che richiedono creme/latte montato.
Lo proverei persino in un ragù.1 likeReply

gingersaint Sì, qui c’è l’olio di cocco e nello Shhh quello di girasole. Però in questo probabilmente mandorle e anacardi fanno qualche differenza perchè lo Shhh a me non monta. I entrambi c’è il gellano ma a fine lista, è solo un addensante non dovrebbe influire 1 likeReply
animaladvocat Are you aware that alpro is Danone who dehorn calves and didn’t care at all they told peta they will stop this torture, 5 years later they still dehorn babies Reply
gingersaint This isn’t from Alpro, Valsoia is an italian dairy free brand (about 90% vegan)Reply
animaladvocat You write you compared it with Alpro and you think the taste of alpro is better, I am telling you it belongs to Danone who torture calves I thought you would like to know what you support Reply
gingersaint That practice is despicable and I looked for some more info but I found nothing but a short column from PETA’s talking about US and Canada, so if you have some more detailed references feel free to share.
My personal view is buying from a subsidiary is one of the ways you can show the parental the market it has expanded in works and investing more (in vegan stuff in this case) could be a good deal: if Alpro grows, it means more money for Danone and means more money to invest in Alpro to make even more money, works this way.
If everyone suddenly stops buying Alpro, Alpro will close down, Danone won’t because they have broad shoulders (for now) and since they are a business wouldn’t keep something unprofitable so in the end no more vegan products but still dairy products: not very far-sighted of you think twice because our goal is showing once for all vegan food and beverage are the right products to buy 1 likeReply

animaladvocat It’s of course your choice to finance some evil company like Danone who buy the market away from small real vegan companies & exploit torture and kill animals. Vegans don’t support animalcruelty no matter where the animals suffer on this planet. My fault I apologize I thought we are all vegans here. Reply
gingersaint It’s not just cookie-cutter, and I find a bit pretentious judging people behind a display without knowing absolutely nothing about them, their lifestyle and their effort.
By your reasoning, no one should even go grocery in a place that also sells meat, dairy and eggs, or have a meal in a restaurant that also serves non-vegan dishes, or buying anything from online shops that sell for example non tested products but also tested products. Reply

animaladvocat You support the suffering of animals, how you don’t care about babies being tortured is enough to know about you I do not know what makes you so coldhearted, maybe you’re feeling guilt which could actually help you become a better you. Try to start with love respect and empathy. If you want to become a vegan, be kind. Your way of talking to me is condescending and completely inappropriate, which raises the question of who judges whom she does not know right in the first answer. I'm sorry that you believe a company like Danone will keep a brand „alive“. Danone doesn't care what they produce or what company they bought will die, as long as it brings money, they use & bought alpro because they know many wouldn’t buy vegan from Danone, alpro knew this so why would I care ? Real vegan companies lose the opportunity to grow due to unreflected shopping behaviour. If you want to become a vegan, be kind. And please stop supporting animals being hurt, we are brothers & sisters and care. We are hurt when, while we work on saving anipals for decades , people like you don’t care because the torture happens in USA and Canada. Good Luck and Goodbye Reply
