Top 8 Vegan Yogurt Brands
Vegan, sustainable and healthy!
Perhaps you’re new to the plant-based movement and are striving toward a healthier, sustainable lifestyle. Maybe you’re a veteran ethical vegan and would like to level up your vegan card. Whatever the reason may be, if you love yogurt + animals, the planet, or your health, you’ve come to the right place. Our picks are, of course, vegan. However, these phenomenal brands have also aimed for sustainability (fewer resources used in production than dairy yogurts) and health (zero cholesterol, almost no saturated fats, no corn syrup, and no sweeteners).
Let’s start from the bottom.
Almond is a pretty popular option and there are thousands of vegan products based on this versatile nut.
The good: they grow on trees and require very little land, and their gas emissions are low. Both less than soy and oats!
The bad: The water usage for its production is very high, though less than dairy milk. Therefore, if you don’t enjoy any other plant-based option, go for it. #oops
