WHAT ARE MILK PLANT CODES ON MILK CARTONS?
The Cornocopia Institute indicates that there are “milk plant codes” on milk cartons, to help you figure out which facility is packaging (animal) milk from large dairies. For information see: https://www.cornucopia.org/action-alerts/aurora-milk-plant-code/
Of course, we prefer that you consume vegan milks! See: https://www.vrg.org/nutrition/milk_alternatives/index.htm

Applies to lacto-vegetarians, not vegans. It is about actual animal milk, not plant-based milks. FYI readers.
