These two brands are often made in the same facilities. I don't know whether the facilities belong to Silk, Turtle Mountain, or a third party. I couldn't find them on the Interstate milk shippers list last time I looked.
There are lots of other brands of milk - including both soy and cows milk - stamped as being from the same facilities. I may have seen other "gable top" products like juice from the same facilities as well.
:hiding: Is it like totally sad that I actually know these facilities already and have nicknames for them? Sometimes I actually see the facility stamps on a carton in the grocery store and think things like "Ah, EH-1 - my old nemesis. So, we meet again".
Nope, not at all weird.
I have the same thoughts about certain shelf-stable products. {sighhhhh}
Sadly, we've seen a LOT of evidence that the admittedly low levels of XC on those products are a big, BIG problem. For DD, anyway.
We quit buying Silk about 2-3y ago, and it was because it was very consistently giving DD stomach pain and other kind of 'off' symptoms.
I'm convinced that it's probably shared production space with a nut-- probably cashew.
Oh yeah, I have major suspicions about anything in an aseptic container. I used to think soups - now those wouldn't be in a factory where they make the aseptic milks - but I was proven wrong looking at the stamps on the top.
If you can deal w/almond contamination Kikkoman PEARL 32 oz. is not shared with peanut, cashew or pistachio
That is good to know. Thanks, Guess!
