Definition:
Yogurt substitutes are non-dairy alternatives to traditional yogurt. They are made from plant-based ingredients, such as soy, coconut, almonds, or cashews. These substitutes aim to replicate the taste, texture, and nutritional properties of dairy yogurt without using any animal-derived ingredients. This makes them suitable for vegans, lactose intolerant individuals, those with dairy allergies, and/or people who simply wish to reduce their consumption of animal products. Yogurt substitutes often contain probiotics to promote gut health, and similarly to dairy-based yogurts, they can be used in various dishes and recipes.
