Guest guest Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 I just Googled 8th Continent, found their website, http://www.8thcontinent.com and clicked on their products to read the ingredients. Nowhere does it say that it contains lanolin. However, it does contain Natural and Artificial flavor, plus Sugar, Fructose, a couple of phosphate ingredients, Xantham Gum, Sucralose....geesh, how much sugar do you need to add? Also, 8th Continent is made from Solae protein. Check out this website: http://www.solae.com. This company is an alliance between DuPont and Bunge Limited. I will step out on a limb and say they most likely use GM soy. On the other hand Silk is made with Organic soybeans, organic evaporated cane juice, sea salt, etc. http:www.silkissoy.com Check out their FAQ section for information on the production of their products. Yes, they do share dairy equipment. The internet is a great tool for finding out the facts. I did all this research in 5 minutes. Vitasoy is another brand that uses Organic soybeans. http://www.vitasoy-use.com I hope this information is useful for those still finding their favorite Soymilk (including myself). I think the next time I buy Soymilk, I'll try to Vitasoy. cheers, Denise , Kimberly <qterthanu23> wrote: > 8th Continent, is not vegetarian as it contains lanolin from sheep.
