Rachel, Tropical Source is able to label their products as "dairy free"
because the US laws state that anything under 3% dairy can be labeled as
dairy free.  Unfortunately, 3% is a lot when you are allergic.  Check
the label very carefully and you will probably find casein listed and
then a disclaimer.  At least that is what their other products have.  I
don't trust that company because of their false claim - legal as it is.
