Weird to be saying "Thank God for Walmart"

I always check to see if they have soy yougurt at the Walmart here because I've heard that stores in other towns carry it. I found to my delight O'Soy peach and strawberry yogurt there yesterday! Now if they keep stocking it, I can get soy yogurt in town and not have to buy bunch at Whole Foods in San Antonio. That's an actual improvement of life in Uvalde, Texas.
:w00t!:
Are you Vegan? Because I hate to burst your bubble. O'Soy is not vegan: Read the list of ingredients:
OUR FAMILY RECIPE: CULTURED PASTEURIZED ORGANIC SOYMILK, NATURALLY MILLED ORGANIC SUGAR, ORGANIC BLUEBERRIES, NATURAL FLAVOR, CALCIUM CARBONATE, PECTIN, ORGANIC ELDERBERRY JUICE CONCENTRATE (FOR COLOR). CONTAINS OUR EXCLUSIVE BLEND OF SIX LIVE ACTIVE CULTURES INCLUDING L. ACIDOPHILUS, BIFIDUS, L. CASEI AND L. RHAMNOSUS. CONTAINS SOY AND MILK (OUR LIVE ACTIVE CULTURES ARE MILK BASED.) http://www.stonyfield.com/nutritionlabels/Label.cfm?LabelID=57
Never mind, I see from your profile that you're ovo-lacto.
Anyway, vegans might be interested to know.
I remember that's how I learned it was unvegan when L2A posted about it here.
Kudos to you for making your own. Sounds good.
Yeah! I educated some peeps!
We have moved on to Wildwood yogurt and everyone here loves it. Its the only one produced in a vegan facility too. That company has some other great products as well (yummy tofu burgers).
I think I do want to make my own though, because I hate that I can't recycle my containes. I can make it and keep it in the containers I have been saving!
mine is also made in a vegan facility.
lol! I will buy some from you then!
I try to be vegan but I only succeed about 95% of the time! Cow milk and derivatives like whey do a bad thing to my sinuses. So I did very little dairy even before I turned vegetarian.
Actually a yogurt maker is on my want list. We are planning on getting one the next time we go to San Antonio. I hope Whole Foods has a vegan plain yogurt. Sometimes they don't have plain in any of the veggie brands they stock!
