I bought almond cheese once and read the package when I had eaten most of it, realized it had casein.

Vegan casein apparently exists but unless it said so on the package...
Salt and vinegar chips are a damn minefield because of this.
I am still trying to parse why you would need milk for vegan chips. I get that some chips aren't vegan because lard is used. But milk? Like is milk vinegar a thing? Do they extract salt from milk instead of oh I don't know grabbing some sea water?
The world makes less sense everyday.
A lot of chips use whey as a binder and for texture. 🙃
Yeah whey is really sticky so it's an easy and cheap way to make flavors stick better to chips. I've found that Great Value S&V chips don't go this route and more expensive bands don't as well but Lay's and Pringles are pretty big on using whey.
i live in a country of mostly lactose intolerant white people, and the ingredients list on a 'vegan' item will check out except every other item will list 'lactose' by itself. and every time i wonder where the fuck the lactose is coming from, or why it seems to be in everything when these people can't digest it.
Vegan products for decades: wow we don't happen to have dairy! lovely!
Vegan products around 2019-2024: what if I add 0.5% milk powder for that sweet, sweet state dairy subsidy
"Plant-based burger" => "CONTAINS: MILK, EGGS"
