I hated advertising long before I figured out I was autistic
okay do yoh guys ever think about the fact that âhigh qualityâ is an actual descriptor like theres high quality tea leaves high quality fabrics high quality espresso beans etc but because of advertising everything that is said to be âhigh qualityâ on the package is just because it supposedly sells better. but not everything is high quality so it is a lie. a descriptor becomes meaningless because it sounds good. what if we were just honest. why cant you say this coffee beans arent the best but they will do the job. i would be happy with okay if it didnt lie
#goo noises#no seriously fuck advertising#it is some fae-esque bullshit where things are either technically not a lie or has no legal meaning so it can't be enforced#the biggest one for me is dairy commercials that say their milke has no RBST growth hormones in it#WELL NO SHIT YOU AREN'T LEGALLY ALLOWED TO HAVE ANY IN THE FIRST PLACE#For the longest time 'Organic' had no legal standards or definitions too#Now it's a strictly enforced thing#in a similar vein fat free isn't actually free of fat#legally it's less than 0.5g of fat per serving#the real kicker is that the producer gets to make the serving size#so that's how you have rediculously small serving sizes#because some company is bending them to fit a legal definition to put a marketing term on their product

1% milk is stupid. Doesnât have the fats in 2% (or higher) that make baking work out well. Doesnât have the no-fat qualities that make whatever weirdos who drink skim happy. Genuinely a confusing beverage/baking ingredient/coffee additive to sell because itâs bad at all of those
#I ran out of creamer yesterday and didnât wanna go to the store cuz when my gf gets back from visiting her parents sheâll bring groceries#and also my ankles are trying to kill me and I donât want that to happen in public#so when I ordered delivery noodles for dinner I also got a little thing of milk they usually give kids#so that I could put it in my coffee this morning#except itâs so gross#Iâm used to the fats binding with all the tannins (the stuff that makes coffee and wine bitter) so then itâs not as bitter#and also it helps lower the acidity a bit so it doesnât make tummy hurt#I have added So Much milk but thereâs no fats so itâs not doing the thing I require of my dairy products#(make coffee yummy in my mouth and not-ouchy in my tummy)#whoever the hell thought low-fat milk was a good idea needs to be dragged through town by their ankles#especially since this oneâs marketed at parents to give to kids. like. kids need fats to grow up right! they build organs out of that!#<- said by a guy who doesnât know much about how organs form. but Iâm pretty sure all the macromolecules are involved including fats

Fortified Dairy Products Market To Reach $173.19 Billion By 2030
The global fortified dairy products market size is anticipated to reach USD 173.19 billion by 2030 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. There is a growing awareness of the importance of nutrition and its role in preventing chronic diseases and promoting overall health. Consumers are becoming more educated about the benefits of vitamins and minerals, leading to a preference for products that offer added health benefits. Fortified dairy products, which are enriched with essential nutrients such as vitamins D and B, calcium, and omega-3 fatty acids, appeal to health-conscious consumers. These nutrients are crucial for bone health, immune function, and cardiovascular health. For instance, vitamin D-fortified milk helps in the absorption of calcium, which is vital for maintaining strong bones and preventing osteoporosis, especially in aging populations.
Fortification of dairy products is an effective strategy to address dietary deficiencies that are prevalent in many parts of the world. Deficiencies in essential nutrients such as vitamin D, iron, and calcium are common, particularly in regions where access to a varied diet may be limited. Fortified dairy products provide an accessible and efficient means to deliver these nutrients to a wide population. For example, vitamin D deficiency is a widespread issue, especially in countries with limited sunlight exposure. Fortifying milk and other dairy products with vitamin D helps mitigate this deficiency. Similarly, fortified dairy products can be crucial in addressing iron deficiency, which is a leading cause of anemia worldwide.
Technological advancements in food processing and fortification have made it easier and more cost-effective to produce fortified dairy products. Innovations in microencapsulation and bioavailability of nutrients have improved the stability and efficacy of fortified ingredients in dairy products. These advancements ensure that the nutrients added to dairy products are preserved throughout the productâs shelf life and are effectively absorbed by the body. Moreover, advancements in production techniques have enabled manufacturers to fortify dairy products without compromising taste, texture, or overall quality. This has made fortified dairy products more appealing to consumers, driving up demand.
The dairy industry has seen a significant increase in the diversity and availability of fortified products. Manufacturers are introducing a wide range of fortified dairy products to cater to different consumer needs and preferences. These products include fortified milk, yogurt, cheese, and even ice cream.
The availability of various fortified options allows consumers to choose products that fit their dietary preferences and lifestyles. For instance, lactose-intolerant consumers can opt for lactose-free fortified milk, while those looking for weight management options can choose low-fat or skim-fortified milk. This diversity in product offerings has broadened the consumer base for fortified dairy products.
The demand for fortified dairy products is witnessing significant growth across different regions, driven by varying factors. In North America, the market is propelled by high health awareness and regulatory support. Consumers in this region are increasingly seeking out products with added health benefits, and stringent fortification regulations ensure the availability of such products. In the Asia Pacific region, rapid urbanization, rising disposable incomes, and growing health consciousness are driving the demand for fortified dairy products. The large population base in countries like China and India presents a substantial market opportunity for manufacturers.

Do we no longer need cows or how are they trying to replace farm products with âtest-tube meatâ?
It has long been no secret to anyone that in different countries artificial food products are being developed that are very difficult to distinguish from real ones. Large companies, such as the Swiss Bell Food Group, invest considerable funds in the development of this industry. But how to get people to switch from organic meat to meat printed on a special printer?
For example, Denmark's coalition government agreed in June 2024 to introduce the worldâs first carbon emissions tax on agriculture. It will mean new levies on livestock starting in 2030. It should be recalled that Denmark is the largest exporter of dairy and pork products, and the agricultural sector is the countryâs largest source of income. Over 140,000 people of the working population are employed in agriculture. The volume of agricultural and livestock production is more than 3 times higher than the needs of the countryâs population. Total exports of agricultural products amount to over 16.8 billion euros. The livestock sector employs 48 thousand people.
So, we can understand that farmers are one of the most profitable groups of the population. At the same time, the government decided to introduce a new tax specifically in relation to this category of citizens of the country. The âgreen agendaâ today is working against people. Green parties and âtest-tube meatâ producers say the tax is an important step in the fight against climate change and the need to move to more environmentally friendly food sources. And this is not surprising, because competitors need to be moved. Not every farmer is willing to pay $96 per cow annually. This means that annually, a farmer with a thousand cows will pay approximately $96,000. Some people say that the new tax is not aimed at actually reducing CO2 emissions, but at increasing the income of artificial meat producers. Also, critics of the tax note that it does not take into account the real conditions of farmers, who already suffer from high prices for building materials and difficulties in obtaining subsidies. We are not even talking about the constant rise in prices for electricity and other utilities. The introduction of this tax may lead to additional costs for farmers, which in turn may lead to a decrease in production and deterioration in the economic situation in agriculture.
Danish farmersâ group BĂŠredygtigt Landbrug said the measures amounted to a âscary experiment.â âWe believe that the agreement is pure bureaucracy,â chairman Peter KiĂŠr said in a statement. âWe recognize that there is a climate problem⊠But we do not believe that this agreement will solve the problems, because it will put a spoke in the wheel of agricultureâs green investments.â Some representatives of Danish farming have begun to blame artificial meat companies for introducing a new tax in the country. According to them, in this way those companies are trying to replace natural products with their own. After all, this tax will hit the pockets of many farmers and they will have to say goodbye to part of their livestock.
âI would not be surprised to see schools in Denmark and Sweden ban meat altogether. Thatâs how it will be,â said Saxo Capital Markets market strategist Charu Chanan in 2023. This is already happening today. While some people will pursue profit, presenting it under the guise of concern for the environment, others will suffer. We remember very well the story about harmless electric vehicles and the gasoline electric generators from which they are charged. And of course, the cherry on the cake is âthe almost environmentally friendlyâ recycling of batteries from those cars.

Mexico Dairy Market: Production, Consumption, and Industry Landscape
The Mexico dairy market is a vital sector within the country's agricultural and food industry, playing a crucial role in meeting the nutritional needs of its population and contributing to economic development. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the Mexico dairy market, covering its history, production, consumption patterns, key players, regulatory framework, and industry challenges.
Market Overview
The Mexico dairy market encompasses the production, processing, distribution, and consumption of various dairy products, including milk, cheese, yogurt, butter, and ice cream. Dairy products are an integral part of the Mexican diet, providing essential nutrients such as calcium, protein, vitamins, and minerals. The market caters to diverse consumer preferences, ranging from traditional dairy products to modern, value-added offerings tailored to urban lifestyles.
History
Dairy farming has a long history in Mexico, dating back to pre-Columbian times when indigenous civilizations such as the Aztecs and Mayans domesticated animals like cows and goats for milk production. During the Spanish colonial period, European dairy farming practices were introduced, further shaping the development of the dairy industry in Mexico. In the modern era, technological advancements, improved breeding practices, and investment in dairy infrastructure have contributed to the growth and modernization of the sector.
Production
Mexico is among the top dairy-producing countries in the world, with a diverse agricultural landscape conducive to dairy farming. The country's dairy production is primarily concentrated in regions with favorable climatic conditions, abundant pasturelands, and access to water resources. Key dairy-producing states in Mexico include Jalisco, Coahuila, Durango, Chihuahua, and Veracruz. Dairy farms range from small-scale family operations to large commercial enterprises, utilizing modern farming practices and technologies to optimize milk production and quality.
Consumption Patterns
Dairy consumption in Mexico is widespread, with dairy products featuring prominently in traditional Mexican cuisine and daily meals. Milk is a staple beverage consumed by people of all ages, while cheese, yogurt, and cream are common ingredients in dishes such as tacos, quesadillas, and enchiladas. The popularity of dairy products extends to urban areas, where consumers seek convenience, variety, and nutritional value in dairy-based snacks, beverages, and desserts.
Key Players
The Mexico dairy market is served by a diverse array of dairy companies, cooperatives, and multinational corporations engaged in milk production, processing, and distribution. Some of the prominent players in the market include:
Grupo Lala: Grupo Lala is one of Mexico's largest dairy companies, producing a wide range of dairy products, including milk, yogurt, cheese, and cream. With a strong distribution network and brand presence, Grupo Lala caters to domestic and international markets.
Alpura: Alpura is a leading dairy cooperative in Mexico, comprising thousands of dairy farmers dedicated to milk production and processing. The cooperative operates state-of-the-art facilities to ensure product quality and safety while promoting sustainable dairy farming practices.
Nestlé México: Nestlé México, a subsidiary of the Swiss multinational Nestlé, is a major player in the Mexican dairy market, offering a diverse portfolio of dairy products under brands such as Nesquik, Nido, and La Lechera. The company focuses on innovation, nutrition, and affordability to meet consumer demands.
Danone Mexico: Danone Mexico, part of the global food and beverage conglomerate Danone, specializes in dairy products such as yogurt, probiotics, and dairy alternatives. With a commitment to health and wellness, Danone Mexico caters to evolving consumer preferences for nutritious and functional dairy products.
Liconsa: Liconsa is a government-owned company responsible for producing and distributing subsidized milk to low-income families in Mexico. As part of social welfare programs, Liconsa plays a crucial role in ensuring access to affordable and nutritious dairy products for vulnerable populations.
Regulatory Framework
The Mexico dairy market is governed by regulatory standards and policies aimed at ensuring food safety, product quality, and consumer protection. The Federal Commission for the Protection against Sanitary Risk (COFEPRIS) and the National Service for Agro-Alimentary Public Health, Safety and Quality (SENASICA) oversee regulatory compliance and inspection of dairy facilities, ensuring adherence to hygiene standards, labeling requirements, and veterinary regulations.
Industry Challenges
Despite its significant contributions to the economy and nutrition, the Mexico dairy market faces several challenges, including:
Climate Change: Climate variability, extreme weather events, and water scarcity pose challenges to dairy farming operations, affecting fodder availability, milk production, and animal welfare in vulnerable regions.
Market Volatility: Fluctuations in milk prices, input costs, and exchange rates impact the profitability and sustainability of dairy farming enterprises, leading to income uncertainty for dairy farmers and processors.
Competition and Imports: The Mexico dairy market faces competition from imported dairy products, including powdered milk, cheese, and butter, which can affect domestic producers' market share and pricing competitiveness.
Health and Nutrition Concerns: Rising consumer awareness about health, nutrition, and lactose intolerance has led to increased demand for dairy alternatives and plant-based milk products, challenging traditional dairy consumption patterns.
Infrastructure and Technology: Limited access to modern dairy processing facilities, cold chain logistics, and agricultural inputs hinders the efficiency, quality, and value addition in the dairy supply chain, particularly in rural and remote areas.
