What You Should Know

You'd spot this in the refrigerated or dairy-alternative aisle and reach for it when making coffee, smoothies, or pouring on cereal — a modern, plant-forward swap for dairy. It gives a health-forward, practical vibe (protein-added, unsweetened) while still feeling convenient and engineered for consistent creaminess. The ingredient list (pea protein isolate, emulsifiers, gellan/xanthan gums, natural flavors and added vitamins) points to industrial formulation for texture, stability, and shelf performance typical of ultraprocessed products.
