Dairy-free Formula Milks

Hi
My sons can't have dairy, eggs or soya and so we have tried most dairy-free formula milks out there - so I thought i'd let parents know which ones seem to taste best. You can often put in a preference wiht your GP.
Neocate - tastes ok, especially if flavoured
neocate active - flavoured ones aren't too bad but not as nice as neocate with nesquik in it.
Peptamen - tastes nice as is vanilla flavoured ( i think this is for babies over a year old though)
Neutramigen - tastes AWFUL, mine wouldn't touch it.
Pepti - not too bad, flavoured
Pepti-Junior - tastes AWFUL - they refused it.
Despite being told by health visitors and doctors that you shouldn't flavour milks - we were told to put Nesquik in by GReat Ormond Street and it worked wonders! At the end of the day, it is more important that they drink the milk than it is to worry about their teeth. As long as you brush their teeth twice a day then should be fine.
