It's unclear, so we try to avoid it as much as possible. It's gained attention since it's in SOME almond milks.</p> <p>It's also in shampoos, toothpastes, ice cream... Check labels!</p> <p>There are many alternative milk products that don't use carrageenan:<br /> <a href="http://www.cornucopia.org/shopping-guide-to-avoiding-organic-foods-with-carrageenan/" rel="nofollow">http://www.cornucopia.org/shopping-guide-to-avoiding-organic-foods-with-carrageenan/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-feed-homemade-non-dairy-milk#post-1181789 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 11:18:48 +0000 looch 1181789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought carrageenen was seaweed derived?
