Ice cream places with non-dairy options?

No, not all sorbets are. Ive read plenty of labels where dairy was either an ingredient or there was cross-contamination. Some add dairy to cut acidity levels (like lemon sorbet) or they may contain casein. A product can be labeled "non-dairy" and still have casein as an ingredient. And if a business has both dairy and dairy-free options, you have to know whether they keep the scoops separate.

Sorbet is a most often a fruity frozen dairy free treat (sometimes a recipe will include dairy so if your allergic to dairy or casein ALWAYS read the label before you indulge)
