Home › Press › VegNews: The 30 Best Vegan Yogurts You Have To Try
The dairy-free industry has come a long way since the early days of meager, runny options. Dairy alternatives are taking over the refrigerated sections of every major supermarket thanks to decadent plant-based cheeses and frothy nut milks. But what’s our favorite non-dairy option? Dreamy, vegan yogurts. These 30 healthful options are lush, probiotic-packed, and ready for swirling into smoothies, breakfast bowls, and so much more.

Choose between blueberry, strawberry, black cherry, vanilla bean, plain, and peach flavors for your morning bite.

3. Forager Project
Cashews make up the base of these smooth dairy alternatives from this dairy alternative brand.
