I ordered your vegan whey products…
I ordered your vegan whey products because I am a vegan. I was drinking my second whey protein shake Sunday night and decided to read the label. I saw in tiny (albeit bold) letters that your vegan whey protein contains milk products. I spit out the drink in my mouth and poured the rest down the drain. I think you should be much clearer in your advertising and in font size and placement of the warning that your products contain dairy milk.

Hello Julie, Thank you for taking the time to review us. The non-animal whey protein in our animal-free dairy products is made by our partner Perfect Day. Perfect Day is able to create whey protein with zero animal involvement through a process called precision fermentation, similar to the process of brewing beer or making kombucha. As note, V-whey is not suitable for those with dairy or milk allergies. It is, however, lactose-free and suitable for those who avoid animal products for ethical or environmental reasons. We hear your feedback on our labelling and will take this to our teams to review. If you'd like assistance on your order, please feel free to reach out to support team at [email protected] as we can also answer any other questions you might have! Thanks again. - Valentina
