How does that even happen? Filtered water and almonds are the main ingredients.The rest are , Calcium Carbonate, Natural Flavors, Sea Salt, Potassium Citrate, Sunflower Lecithin, Gellan Gum, Vitamin A Palmitate, Vitamin D2, D-Alpha-Tocopherol (Natural Vitamin E. How does it happen that regular cow milk would get added in what I would have to believe are massive quantities shipped out to 28 states?
That is sad but Sorry! If you do not have cow milk allergy, the product is still Not safe to consume by plant-based/vegan/vegetarian people that choose these brands trusting that there is no cow milk in it. 🙁
The sweetened nut milks are mostly water, sugar, chemicals and about a handful of nuts.
This is so bad!! My son has an extremely serious allergy to milk protein and would be hospitalized almost immediately! Good thing I buy the non refrigerated from Costco
Most likely it happened because it was packaged or bottled at a facility who also packages milk and possibly the equipment wasnt thouroughly cleaned and flushed.
That’s what I was thinking.
I want my money back but I have no proof. I never keep my receipt! Who does? Just more trash in the home lol
You can probably just take the carton of milk back.
I keep all of my receipts for at least a month in case I need to return an item or get a price adjustment. I keep medical and banking receipts indefinitely.
CA is safe lol
