Guest guest Posted September 22, 2003 Report Share Posted September 22, 2003 I'm not vegan either. Though I may be going vegan soon.. We do use soy milk and soy cheese. I consume some products that contain caeisin (soy cheese, non-dairy creamer) and whey (veat). I suppose it is better for our bodies than large amounts of cow milk and cheese.

Even before his allergy developed we were dairy avoiders we all feel that cow's milk is an excellent source of nutrition for baby cows. Anyway, just wanted to put in my 2 cents on soy cheeses. Most contain casein and/or whey. The vegans among us probably already knew that but I felt it worth mentioning. We use the vegan products by soymage. No one in the family cares for them straight but they work well when cooked into things.

Again not labeled specifically vegan...Makes me wonder how many products are out their targeting the vegetarian market but are not really safe to eat. " The company that makes the veggie slices also makes vegan slices that do not contain the dairy ingredient. Soy cheeses often have casein added to help them melt, so be sure to watch for that if you are vegan. You really need to read the labels.
