I don't like to drink milk either, but I love it in my cereal, so I have a lot I that. Also, yogurt, cheese, frozen yogurt, shakes.

Does ice cream count? Chat Icon

I can't remember the last time I had a glass of milk, but I do eat a lot of greek yogurt, low fat cheese sticks, OJ w/calcium.

There are lots of non-dairy foods with calcium too that you probably eat - spinach, broccoli, nuts...here's a list

tums? Chat Icon

I eat so many of those a day for the heartburn, I'm pretty sure I more than meet the daily calcium needs.

In all seriousness though, I have a rotation of cheese (string/sticks, cubes, and wedges/spreads) and yogurt.

That counts! My doc told me that if I don't get it in other ways to just take 2 Tums daily.

I've been a calcium queen. I'm normally lactose intolerant but I am able to enjoy dairy now!

I eat a yogurt pretty much every day, snack on cheese or add to a meal. Eating veggie pasta with cheese right now.

I've also been enjoying chocolate milk and ice cream on occasion.

You can eat soft cheese as long as it's pasteurized. I eat soft cheese a lot. It's rare to find cheese that isn't pasteurized.
