Is soy milk considered dairy?

Question

Is soy milk considered dairy?

Answer 1

No.  Although they keep it in the dairy case, dairy means it comes from cows or other lactating mammals.  Milk, cheese, yoghurt, etc.  And no eggs are not dairy either: eggs come from chickens not cows.  You won't find any soy bearing cows on a dairy farm.

Answer 2

No, soy comes from soy beans. So it is considered a plant/legume.

On a side note, it's one of the only plants that provides all the complete amino acids you need for your diet. (The other is quinoa)

Answer 3

NO. And it's not milk, either.
