  • Death-Free Dairy? the Ethics of Clean Milk
    J Agric Environ Ethics https://doi.org/10.1007/s10806-018-9723-x ARTICLES Death-Free Dairy? The Ethics of Clean Milk Josh Milburn1 Accepted: 10 January 2018 Ó The Author(s) 2018. This article is an open access publication Abstract The possibility of ‘‘clean milk’’—dairy produced without the need for cows—has been championed by several charities, companies, and individuals. One can ask how those critical of the contemporary dairy industry, including especially vegans and others sympathetic to animal rights, should respond to this prospect. In this paper, I explore three kinds of challenges that such people may have to clean milk: first, that producing clean milk fails to respect animals; second, that humans should not consume dairy products; and third, that the creation of clean milk would affirm human superiority over cows. None of these challenges, I argue, gives us reason to reject clean milk. I thus conclude that the prospect is one that animal activists should both welcome and embrace. Keywords Milk Á Food technology Á Biotechnology Á Animal rights Á Animal ethics Á Veganism Introduction A number of businesses, charities, and individuals are working to develop ‘‘clean milk’’—dairy products created by biotechnological means, without the need for cows. In this paper, I complement scientific work on this possibility by offering the first normative examination of clean dairy. After explaining why this question warrants consideration, I consider three kinds of objections that vegans and animal activists may have to clean milk. First, I explore questions about the use of animals in the production of clean milk, arguing that its production does not involve the violation of & Josh Milburn [email protected] http://josh-milburn.com 1 Department of Politics, University of York, Heslington, York YO10 5DD, UK 123 J.

  • GRAS Notice GRN 863 Agency Response Letter
    U.S. FOOD & DRUG ADMINISTRATION CENTER FOR FOOD SAFETY &. APPLIED NuntmON . Mr. Melvin S. Drozen Keller and Heckman LLP 1001 G Street, NW, Suite 500W Washington, DC 20005 Re: GRAS Notice No. GRN 000863 Dear Mr. Drozen: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA, we) completed our evaluation of GRN 000863. We received the notice that you submitted on behalf of Perfect Day, Inc. on May 20, 2019 and filed it on June 28, 2019. Perfect Day submitted amendments to the notice on July 3, August 14, September 10, and December 30, 2019, and January 28, 2020. These amendments provide additional information about the identity, manufacturing specifications, and intended use. The subject of the notice is -lactoglobulin produced by Trichoderma reesei ( - lactoglobulin) for use as a source of protein in food at levels up to 35%. Perfect Day states that -lactoglobulin is not intended for use in infant formula or in products subject to regulation by the United States Department of Agriculture. The notice informs us of Perfect Day’s view that this use of -lactoglobulin is GRAS through scientific procedures. Our use of the term, “ -lactoglobulin,” in this letter is not our recommendation of that term as an appropriate common or usual name for declaring the substance in accordance with FDA’s labeling requirements. Under 21 CFR 101.4, each ingredient must be declared by its common or usual name. In addition, 21 CFR 102.5 outlines general principles to use when establishing common or usual names for nonstandardized foods. Issues associated with labeling and the common or usual name of a food ingredient are under the purview of the Office of Nutrition and Food Labeling (ONFL) in the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition.

  • Pandya Position Paper F
    Toward a Diversified Protein Future** Ryan Pandya, Chief Executive Officer, Perfect Day, Berkeley, California Summary: Global demand for high-quality, animal-sourced protein is expected to rise substantially in the coming decades as population grows and household incomes rise. Simultaneously, climate experts are calling for a rapid transition away from animal-derived foods in an effort to curb greenhouse gas emissions from animal agriculture. There is a global need for innovative solutions to produce quality protein without contributing to the negative environmental impacts associated with industrial animal agriculture. Current realities: Currently, the world’s highest-quality proteins come from animal products and have been shown to provide important defense against malnutrition and stunting, especially in the developing world. Among animal-sourced proteins, dairy is the most bioavailable in the human diet. Global demand for dairy protein is projected to increase 60% by 2050 as global incomes rise and the population grows to over 9 billion. Unfortunately, many people cannot afford to buy food that contains dairy protein, are unable to consume it because of milk protein allergies or lactose intolerance, or choose to restrict their consumption of dairy products. Additionally, dairy’s reliance on animal agriculture poses a serious challenge to sustainability by burdening land and water resources already in high demand. In light of these realities, many consumers are choosing dairy alternatives derived from plants. However, these products are of a much lower nutritional quality than animal proteins, as indicated by the Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score and the Digestible Indispensable Amino Acid Score. In addition, plant-based products do not have the same taste, texture, and functional properties of dairy products.

  • Not Just Fake Meat but Fake Ice Cream
    Not Just Fake Meat but Fake Ice Cream Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola Fact Checked STORY AT-A-GLANCE - The new Planetary Health Diet is designed to be applied to the global population and entails cutting meat and dairy intake by up to 90% Along with fake meat products, fake dairy foods are on the horizon, including imitation ice cream made with lab-produced milk proteins A company called Perfect Day is using genetically engineered (GE) Trichoderma reesei fungus to produce animal-free versions of the dairy proteins casein and whey The healthiest dairy products come from grass fed cows that are integrated into their surrounding environment, but Perfect Day’s fake milk proteins can only be produced in a system that’s “isolated from the outside world” Grass fed, regenerative farming is the true environmental and sustainability winner, but it’s being overshadowed by the New Normal, intent on forcing you to eat fake food Swapping traditional, whole foods grown by small farmers for mass-produced fake foods grown in a laboratory is part and parcel of the Great Reset. The EAT Forum, co- founded by the Wellcome Trust, developed a Planetary Health Diet that’s designed to be applied to the global population and entails cutting meat and dairy intake by up to 90%, replacing it largely with foods made in laboratories, along with cereals and oil.1 Sadly, this is not what your body needs to thrive, but it’s being pushed as a healthy, green and sustainable alternative to animal foods.
