Any Milk-Free Snacks Available in Supermarket?

I am looking for snacks (muesli bars etc.) that are milk-free, any suggestions of snacks that are available in the supermarket.

    Can’t go wrong with HANS brand striker salami sticks washed down with a 2L ice cold pepsi max

    • Those salamis contain lactose from milk

          I think it’s used to help the fermentation process.

          • @mapax: Starter cultures are made by fermentation on milk base

      Round it out with 6 pack bread rolls, large pasta salad, box of Weiss bars and a Diet* Coke

      • That pasta salad will definitely have milk of some sort.

    I have children that are allergic to dairy but these days there are plenty of dairy free options - just have to read the labels carefully.

    Soy crisps
    Rice crackers
    Dried fruits and nuts
    Chips and vegie chips
    Corn thins and crispbread
    Oreos, delta creams (surprising)
    Sweet Williams chocolates
    Muesli bars (although my kids have nut allergies too so I tend to avoid)
    Aldi also has a garlic dip in the cold food section which is suprisingly dairy free. Alternatively hommus is usually a safe bet.

    There is also whole bunch of health food manufacturers that specialise in dairy free stuff but they tend to be much more expensive and harder to find (i.e. not stocked in Aldi but usually in Coles/Woolies). e.g. Bio Cheese, So Good/Yoconut ice cream, Dairy free magnum. Also if you look in the health foods aisle, there is lots of dairy free stuff but they tend to be more expensive.

    It’s also challenging cooking meals that are dairy free (e.g. most pre-made italian pastas and sauces have some sort of cream or cheese) but it’s also satisfying creating meals that work around them. I can do a pretty mean lasagna using a soy milk based bechamel sauce.

  • Most muesli bars are dairy free unless you get ones with chocolate or yoghurt. Most chips and crackers. It gets more challenging if you have another allergy/intolerance like nuts, gluten, egg, soy etc.

  • Ingredient labels are your friend. Milk is usually listed under possible allergens, like wheat or soy.
