This is complete nonsense right on the top of the page: "Those Vegan Cowboys strive for healthy products with less saturated fats, which are suitable for people with lactose intolerance. " Lactose is a sugar and has nothing to do with saturated fat. If they don't understand one of the most fundamental qualities of milk how can they ever hope to recreate it?

I noticed the same, but I think some benefit of a doubt needs to be given because the text was probably written by someone who is not a native speaker of English. I think the phrasing is off, and they meant "products with less saturated fats, and in addition which are suitable for people with lactose intolerance". As in, listing two distinct properties, not one property implying the other.

Exactly. The 'which' probably refers to 'healthy products', rather than to 'saturated fats'.

I think you're just reading this incorrectly. It should be read as "thing which has quality A, and quality B" (where A is low saturated fat and B is no lactose), not "quality A which implies quality B".

Looks like 'dutch english' or maybe even an automated translation - google translate makes the same mistake of using 'products xx, which can...' instead of 'products xx, that can...'
