Comments on: 8th Continent http://nashveggie.com/blog/index.php/2007/05/31/8th-continent/ Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:15:39 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.5 By: NashVeggie http://nashveggie.com/blog/index.php/2007/05/31/8th-continent/comment-page-1/#comment-14 Fri, 31 Aug 2007 20:15:42 +0000 http://nashveggie.com/blog/?p=42#comment-14 Should be of no concern as Vitamin D3 is NOT LISTED as an ingredient any longer on the label OR on 8th Continent’s site. As I stated previously, 8th Continent once contained Vitamin D3, but it has been removed from the ingredients recently, so it is now a VEGAN product.

You should contact the General Mills site admins if you feel their site is in error, as it most evidently is.

Let me add, as well, that I don’t even drink 8th Continent. I prefer Organic Valley soymilk. Not that my preference has anything to do with this I just wanted to be clear that I have no agenda in pushing a preferred product.

Q: Is 8th Continent soymilk a vegan product?

A: The Vitamin D added to 8th Continent soymilk is from animal origin. It is Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) from wool fat (lanolin). Thus, it is not a vegan product.

I know the ingredients say D2 now, but it’s still disconcerting. Maybe General Mills forgot to update their page seperate from 8th Cont’s site.

Once 8th Continent was not vegan, as it contained vitamin D3. However, no longer is D3 added. Perhaps that is where you are confused.

states that it isn’t. Weird, though, with your link. Someone needs to call them.

http://www.8thcontinent.com/HealthBenefits/OtherBenefits.aspx
“Vegan:
Veganism is a philosophy and lifestyle that avoids using animals and animal products for food, clothing and other purposes. There are no animal components in the ingredients of 8th Continent soymilk.”

As well, as found in the ingredient list here:

http://www.8thcontinent.com/Products/ProductIndividual.aspx?CategoryID=1&ProductID=1

it no longer contains Vitamin D3
“Ingredients:

Soymilk (Water, Soy Protein, Soybean Oil, Calcium Phosphate), Sugar, Potassium Citrate, Dipotassium Phosphate, Soy Lecithin, Carrageenan, Salt, Xanthan Gum, Natural And Artificial Flavor, Riboflavin (Vitamin B2), Vitamin A(Palmitate), Vitamin D2, Vitamin B12 ”

That’s official enough for me.

I’m not sure we can assume that because of the switch it automatically is. Other websites from ’06 say that it is vegan too, but someone on quoted an e-mail from 8th Cont. saying they could not guarantee the vegan-ness. Do you have an official source on this?
