Silk Vanilla Almondmilk — OKAY

Munch or Dump rates Silk Vanilla Almondmilk by Silk OKAY — score 60/90.

This is mostly filtered water with a little almond, sweetened with cane sugar and held together by three gums. The fortification (calcium, D2, B12, vitamin E) gives it real utility as a dairy swap. Fine in coffee or cereal, just do not mistake it for almonds in a glass.

Why this verdict

• Base is filtered water and almonds - almond content in these products is typically low single-digit percent
• Added cane sugar makes this the sweetened vanilla version, not an unsweetened almond milk
• Three stabilizers/emulsifiers are stacked: locust bean gum, sunflower lecithin and gellan gum
• Genuinely fortified - calcium, vitamin D2, B12 and vitamin E add dairy-comparable micronutrients
