Belgium, (Brussels Morning Newspaper) This Wednesday is World School Milk Day, a day to celebrate and raise awareness of free and subsidized school milk programs, which exist in over 34 countries across the world. Unsurprisingly, none of these schemes include alternatives to dairy milk.
This was quite understandable, launched 22 years ago, the day is traditionally associated with dairy milk but with 68% of the global population being lactose intolerant, and many people suffering from cow’s milk allergy, it’s no surprise that more and more countries are promoting plant-based milk as an alternative to dairy.
