How does your site define “Dairy Free”? |

|
For the purposes of using our site, we define dairy free as "free from milk based ingredients". This includes casein and lactose. For those with a very severe dairy allergy or intolerance, even trace amounts of milk protein or sugar may cause a reaction. In product manufacture, "dairy free" products may be cross-contaminated with trace amounts of dairy due to the use of shared equipment. Fortunately, for most dairy free consumers, this is not an issue. For those with a severe allergy or intolerance, review the products in our Shopping Lists that have a check in the "dedicated equipment" field. Contact the corresponding manufacturers directly to verify product safety for the milk allergic or intolerant before consuming.
