What You Should Know

You'd find this in the refrigerated plant-based yogurt aisle, grabbed by shoppers looking for a dairy-free, protein-forward option for breakfast bowls or snacks. It gives off a modern, health-conscious vibe — thick, Greek-style texture with no added sugar feels practical yet slightly indulgent. The use of soy protein isolate, tapioca starch and 'natural flavors' to build creaminess and mouthfeel (despite the almond base) signals industrial formulation typical of ultra-processed products.
