Is Knorr Vegetable Soup Mix Vegan?

Unfortely, Knorr Vegetable Soup Mix is NOT vegan. The culprit is the ingredient “lactose,” which is derived from milk.
Let’s take a look at the ingredient statement from Unilever (the parent company of Knorr) so that you can see for yourself…
Ingredients: Dehydrated vegetables (onions, carrots, tomatoes, celery root, leeks, cabbage, cauliflower, peas, potatoes), salt, potato starch, hydrolyzed corn protein, lactose, hydrolyzed soy protein, modified potato starch, hydrolyzed wheat protein, corn starch, palm oil, onion powder, natural flavor, caramel color, garlic powder, citric acid, turmeric (color), spice.
Contains: Milk, soy, wheat
As you can see, milk is in the allergen statement, and lactose is in the ingredient statement.
If you’re disappointed, don’t worry. There are lots of other vegan vegetable soup mix options.
