I think it does sound like a way they're trying to deceive vegans. People
who are lactose intolerant probably make up the largest market for soy milk,
but vegans would likely run a close second (I like to drink it and I'm
neither though). It seems like they might want to change their ingredients
list in case there are some allergy issues that might affect people.
