I'm lactose intolerant and soy isn't really the best option for me due to other health issues, so I buy the lactose-free varieties (Lactaid being the primary brand, but most stores have their own brand, too, which can be cheaper). Even if you're not lactose intolerant, the awesome thing about this milk is that it lasts a lot longer than regular milk (surely something in the processing), up to a month, usually. Because of this, my mom (who doesn't drink milk often but does like to have it around when she wants it) has switched to buying the lactose-free milk and eliminated the waste involved with having milk spoil so soon, About the milk-going-bad thing.

I remember eating lots of white rice with soy sauce - very inexpensive! Try it, but get brown rice instead.
