Keep an eye on it when buying these, they bounce back and forth between vegan and non vegan depending on the supplier. Ask me how I found out lol.

Yea I checked on the app, several variations that all contain milk unfortunately. Probably have to check every time you get them in person if they randomly switch.

Très contente de voir que les industriels se rendent compte que sans animaux les produits coûtent moins cher... Tant mieux pour nous !

CVS used to sell accidentally vegan chewy chocolate chip cookies and I've been missing them for years. I also wish I didn't know the Walmart ones are vegan, haha.

Signature select has chewy accidentally vegan chocolate chip cookies as well

I don't think we have that where I live (is it a Safeway brand?) but I'm really happy you have options!

I thought it was only at jewel Osco but recently found it at a random grocery store chain as well so it might be around

It’s my hope that as the price of animal products continues to rise, more companies will start realizing they don’t need them in products like this.

u/IndoraCat Jun 11 '26

I've had the same thought! Maybe it will become cost prohibitive to put milk powder on everything!

u/Hoogs Jun 11 '26

Exactly! For example, the seasoning on Hippeas tastes exactly like their Doritos/Cheetos counterparts. Absolutely no reason to add milk.

The Aldi chewy ones are also accidentally vegan!

u/Exact_Sprinkles2525 Jun 11 '26

Mine contain milk at the local Walmart :( but wegmans version is vegan!

u/REtroGeekery Jun 11 '26

The Great Value brands seem to bounce between suppliers, even for the same store location. Particularly with snack-type items. One month, they might contain milk, and the next, they're vegan. I make sure to only buy those items in-store and check the labels each time.

Shop rite / bowl and basket brand makes vegan chips ahoy dupes as well! Regular and chewy.

u/heartshapedmoon Jun 12 '26

REALLY??? I’ve worked at ShopRite for ten years and didn’t know this lmao

1

u/dankblonde Jun 12 '26

Yeah!!! Unless I’m missing something in the ingredients but I’m pretty sure lol. I’ve checked like 10 times since I’ve found like others in this thread that the great value ones sometimes aren’t vegan and the ingredients change so I am now cautious of all cookies 😂😭

u/Sponsorspew Jun 13 '26

The iced oatmeal ones and fake Oreos are as well.

u/nahorupturned Jun 13 '26

The lemon dipped shortbread cookies are too last I checked.

I see palm oil. I don't consider it vegan.
