I have looked on there before. Everything is so expensive.
When I make my first million by selling a everlastinggobbstopper(that looks a wee bit like a pebble) that comes with a free self-hypnosis CD, I'll start getting that stuff.
I might be better off without it anyway, with the way I put on weight.
The Twilight, Buccaneer and Jokerz bars are so nice, 
but they are expensive annoyingly. Hopefully when more people turn vegan the prices will come down.

I don't mind too much that they're expensive. It's the only thing that keeps me from eating them by the handfuls.

So many options!! There's also Lulu's :http://www.luluschocolate.com/
I don't like chocolate so I can't comprehend why people are so obsessed with it, but it seems like there is a good size variety of dairy free vegan options to choose from.
Everyone can be vegan, but some people can't get the b12 they need on a vegan diet, even with supplemented food, sublinguals, etc., unless they want to get injections every couple of weeks. It works in terms of staying alive and healthy long enough to procreate, but some peoples' ambitions are a bit greater than that. But yes, kudos to vegetarians and vegans. Every one.

Saying one cannot be vegan because of love for a particular food that is unnecessary to be healthy and thrive is silly to me. Furthermore the use of the word "can't" is silly, and should be "don't want" instead. I love cheese but am lactose intolerant and cruelty intolerant so I can't eat cheese, is a silly statement I make but it is true

I have recipe links for snickers and peppermint patties too if anyone wants to check them out.

I would like to reiterate that this is a support forum for vegetarians. Using words like silly are not helpful. Furthermore they do not encourage vegetarians to be able to express their difficultes.
Any further comments that are inappropriate will be deleted.

I want them cheap so I can eat them by the handfuls without going broke
I can't be the only one here!
If they get too cheap, feel free to send me some so you don't eat too much

Indeed! Coconut milk ice cream and almond milk ice cream are so much better than dairy ice cream.
Gil- you really need to try these! There is so much variety in flavors and different products.
Check out these links:

If you try the alternatives and still can't give up dairy, then maybe the focusing on the cruelty factor will help you? Here are some very graphic links that show the horrific pain, torture and death that the cows endure in order to produce the ice cream and chocolate.

Thank you so much for all your links and advise guys. You are a big help! I am very sorry for the title if I make anyone upset. I know I can go dairy free, I just have to have the strong will. In the first place I actually don't like the taste of milk even when I was still an Omni, it's one of the big factor why I have this calcium deficiency.. Yes desserts are tempting especially if it is already in my plate but with these alternatives you've given me I know I can enjoy it much more without worrying. I will just make my own dairy-free desserts or buy a sorbet when there are gatherings.

Yes. I usually make fruit salad using non dairy cream.
I also like frozen berries with either soya cream or Oatly (oat cream) and a few drops of liquid stevia.

Don't worry about the title ; nobody is upset.
