Note: Soy, oat, bean, and rice-based ice creams are included in dairy ice cream. Rice, soy, oats and beans (ie red bean and mung bean ice cream products found in East Asia) can be used as dairy substitutes in the manufacture of ice cream, but the product is still equivalent in terms of positioning/marketing and consumer targeting to standard dairy ice cream.
