Where can I buy dairy free soy milk?

[vik85]

The only brand I've found is vitasoy which contails dairy milk. Can anyone tell me where I can find dairy free and completely vegan soy milk? Thanks.

Try the larger supermarkets like Wellcome Superstores, ParknShop's International, and expat-y shops like Great, Olivers, Three-Sixty and C!tysuper...

Premium Organic VITASOY is vegan I believe.

BTW, what component is dairy in ordinary vitasoy soy drink?

There shouldn't be any dairy components in Vitasoy in the first place though, Thats what I don't understand from the op's question.

I am mostly positive that I read where they found melamine in Chinese soy milk, so they might add some sort of powder to it.

Is there milk in vitasoy?!? Always thought its soy and malt.

Anyway most shops you walk past in HK sells the cheap soy milk which they grind it themselves etc and turns bad within a day as they don;t put preservative. So best time to buy is sometime in the late morning when its fresh. You can always ask them for no/low sugar, hot/cold, etc etc

And yes there's melamine in soy, hell there's melamine in everything. Everything from animal feed to fertilizer has it. Safest way is to grow your own stuff and pee into the pots as fertilizer

I'm sure I read on the packaging that it contained milk or milk powder. I'll try and look out for the organic kind though.

I actually managed to find some Soy Dream today which is definitely vegan. I also bought a vegan can of soy milk powder which should last me a while, both from Health Gate in Central. I was shocked at the price but I think it's the same everywhere in HK.

Everyone has to suffer for their beliefs. As a general rule, the further your beliefs are from the mainstream then the more you will suffer.

Effort (rather than suffering) might be a more apposite term, as it appears that some people get a (perverse?) pleasure out of the fact that they are "not mainstram"/different - and they go to great lengths and considerable effort to achieve this.

checked it out out of curiosity, there are 'milk solids' in vitasoy (i assumed that meant the settled contents but i'm certainly no expert)...i did see a pricier organic soy milk that was dairy free at Wellcome, i think it was called 'Bonsoy' or something close...
