  • NON-DAIRY MILKS 2018 - TREND INSIGHT REPORT It’S on the Way to Becoming a $3.3 Billion Market, and Has Seen 61% Growth in Just a Few Years
    NON-DAIRY MILKS 2018 - TREND INSIGHT REPORT It’s on the way to becoming a $3.3 billion market, and has seen 61% growth in just a few years. Non-dairy milks are the clear successor to cow (dairy) milk. Consumers often perceive these products as an answer to their health and wellness goals. But the space isn’t without challenges or considerations. In part one of this two- part series, let’s take a look at the market, from new product introductions to regulatory controversy. COW MILK ON THE DECLINE Cow milk (also called dairy milk) has been on the decline since 2012. Non-dairy milks, however, grew 61% in the same period. Consumers are seeking these plant-based alternatives that they believe help them feel and look better to fulfill health and wellness goals. Perception of the products’ health benefits is growing, as consumers seek relief from intolerance, digestive issues and added sugars. And the market reflects it. Non-dairy milks climbed 10% per year since 2012, a trend that’s expected to continue through 2022 to become a $3.3 billion-dollar market.2 SOY WHAT? MEET THE NON-DAIRY MILKS CONSUMERS CRAVE THREE TREES UNSWEETENED VANILLA ORGANIC ALMONDMILK Made with real Madagascar vanilla ALMOND MILK LEADS THE NON-DAIRY MILK bean, the manufacturer states that the CATEGORY WITH 63.9% MARKET SHARE drink contains more almonds, claims to have healthy fats and is naturally rich and nourishing with kitchen-friendly ingredients. As the dairy milk industry has leveled out, the non-dairy milk market is growing thanks to the consumer who’s gobbling up alternatives like almond milk faster than you can say mooove.

  • Terminology Tempest in the Dairy Case David Sprinkle Research Director, Packaged Facts
    PACKAGED FACTS ON OPPORTUNITIES IN FOOD INDUSTRY DISRUPTION Terminology Tempest in the Dairy Case David Sprinkle Research Director, Packaged Facts The recent European Union Court of Justice ruling against marketing of non-dairy soy/ soya products in dairy terms (such as soy “milk” or tofu “butter”) was the right call, narrowly speaking. From the consumer protection viewpoint, however, it’s not clear that much justice was served. Nor is the European dairy industry likely to benefit significantly, as is the case with parallel initiatives taking place in the U.S. EU Ruling Against Soyfoods Marketed in Dairy Terms Since 2013, European Union law has specified that dairy terms such as milk, cheese, yogurt, and butter are restricted to animal products. With logic that fails to leap out, at least on this side of the Atlantic, EU regulators baked in exceptions for dairy analog products including almond milk and coconut milk, which are relatively new as packaged dairy alternative beverages. Ice “cream,” similarly, was allowed for non-dairy alternatives. The EU regulators left soy “milk” out in the cold, even though soy milk has been marketed in Europe as well as the U.S. for a century. While marketers of soy-based dairy analogs were officially barred from using dairy terminology for their products, enforcement of this restriction has been lax, as in the parallel case in the U.S. This led the main consumer protection organizational alliance in Germany (funded by the Federal Ministry With logic that fails to of Consumer Affairs, Nutrition, and Agriculture) to leap out, EU regulators file a case in German courts against Tofu Town—a baked in exceptions for German food manufacturer that (as the company name almond and coconut proactively gives away) markets soy-based foods.

  • Don't Cry Over Plant-Based Milk: Why the Use of the Term “Milk” on Non-Dairy Beverages Does Not Constitute “Misbranded” Under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act

Health & Biomedical L. 481 Journal of Health & Biomedical Law 2018 Note Giuliana D'Esopo 1 Copyright © 2018 by Journal of Health & Biomedical Law; Giuliana D'Esopo DON'T CRY OVER PLANT-BASED MILK: WHY THE USE OF THE TERM “MILK” ON NON-DAIRY BEVERAGES DOES NOT CONSTITUTE “MISBRANDED” UNDER THE FEDERAL FOOD, DRUG, AND COSMETIC ACT Of course, the global economy couldn't very well function without this wall of ignorance and the indifference it breeds. This is why the American food industry and its international counterparts fight to keep their products from telling even the simplest stories ... about how they were produced. The more knowledge people have about the way their food is produced, the more likely it is that their values-and not just ‘value'- will inform their purchasing decisions. 2 I. Introduction In December of 2016, Congress launched an effort to prevent nondairy drink manufacturers from labeling their products as “milk.” 3 Thirty-two members of the House signed a letter to the Commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) claiming that plant-based manufacturers are misleading consumers, and describing nondairy products as “unable to match the nutritional makeup of the product they mimic.” 4 Though dairy consumption has long played a role in society, drinking dairy milk is a fairly new practice beginning in the late nineteenth century. 5 As demand dictates supply, dairy farms became industrial businesses with federal approval to increase milk production by extraordinary means, including injecting cows with various genetically- *482 engineered growth hormones such as bovine growth hormone (“rBST” or “rBGH”).
