Non-dairy refers to products that do not contain milk or any milk-derived ingredients. This category includes alternatives made from plants, such as almonds, soy, coconut, and oats. Non-dairy options are popular among those who are lactose intolerant, allergic to dairy, or following a vegan diet. Non-dairy products can be found in various forms, including milk substitutes, yogurt, cheese, and ice cream. These alternatives often aim to replicate the taste and texture of traditional dairy products while providing different nutritional profiles. Many non-dairy items are fortified with vitamins and minerals to enhance their health benefits.
