Abstract

The article reports that a bipartisan group of 32 U.S. legislators has called on the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to stop companies from calling their plant-based beverages as milk. Topics covered include FDA regulations defining milk as a lacteal secretion that is obtained by milking one or more healthy cows, the increase in popularity of dairy milk alternatives from almonds, soy, and cashews, and the decline in sales of cow's milk due to negative health perceptions.
