Let’s talk yogurt basics.

You probably already know that dairy-based yogurt is made with milk from animals like cows, goats, or sheep. In these cases, the yogurt isn’t suitable for vegans because the type of milk, animal-based, is used to make it.

So, what kind of yogurt is vegan?

Brands that use plant-milks like almond, cashew, coconut, oat, soy, or another plant-based milk are usually vegan. Head to the refrigerated section of the grocery store where the dairy products live. Vegan versions are typically right next to dairy versions.

Read the label carefully, look for ones marked dairy-free, plant-based, or vegan.
