Not disputing the lists, but in the experience of people on this forum, we don't all have the same sals reactions to the same foods. I don't think there is any such thing as a "definitive" sals list, just guidance. I think...

Don't do rice milk if you can find a viable alternative - there was a study in the UK recently that showed it has fairly high levels of arsenic. Fine for small amounts, but I wouldn't use it in the quantities you need. Coconut milk...
