Can you check in if you’re vegetarian, so I can get advice. I know @SacredNeigh7 is. With almond milk $2.36 a half gallon and meat/eggs/milk so expensive is why I’m thinking about doing this. I’m lactose Intolerant and can’t use regular milk.

A US half gallon is 1.893 liters, so the almond milk is about what you pay for soy milk.

Well I found what is making me sick. The I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter ingredients label says it contains milk and soy. The Imperial margarine is Vegan. It uses pea protein instead of milk

I use vegan butter made out of olive oil.
Nuttelex olive it’s called.
A bit expensive but delicious.

I saw that on Walmart’s website. It’s about double the price but you get a choice of olive oil or avocado oil.

I actually bought the Imperial margarine because it was on sale. I see it has mono glycerides in it which Google says comes from animal fat. I’m going to buy some of the vegan butter next week.
