Yet another recall – but this one is directed right at vegetarians


Do you drink soymilk? Then there is a recall you should know about.

Got milk?
WhiteWave Foods, the company who makes Silk soymilk, is voluntarily recalling the 11-ounce plastic single serve bottles of Silk Soymilk Chocolate Flavor because it may contain milk protein. Which, of course, is a problem for vegetarians who are trying to avoid dairy and a problem for anyone with a diary allergy.

How to identify the recalled soymilk
The bottles have a 05 07 08 “use by” date and a UPC of 2529360028 printed on the back.

What to do if you have a recalled soymilk
Just return it where you bought it for a full refund or exchange.

Who you gonna call about the soymilk recall
Got questions? Then call WhiteWave at 1-800-587-2259.

    Something that boggles my mind is what do vegetarians do if they were allergic to soy?

    …how does that happen?

    I understand that they are owned by Dean Foods and that Whitewave also owns Horizon and other dairy-filled brands, but it doesn’t seem like dairy should ever be that close to the soy products. For reasons like this…

    Thanks, I didn’t know about that and Silk is my milk of choice, although I am a carton kind of girl, so hopefully haven’t been contaminated.

    One good way to avoid contamination is to make your own. Not as much sugar and cheaper, too. I bought mine at soymilkcrossroads.com
