'Post-Milk Generation’ and Other Things Big Dairy Doesn’t Want You to Say: The Oatly Case

from The Disclosure Podcast · host Ed Winters

In this episode of The Disclosure Podcast, I break down the UK Supreme Court ruling that prevents Oatly from using the slogan “post-milk generation” on its packaging, and explore why this case is nothing to do with consumer confusion and everything to do with protecting the dairy industry. I discuss the inconsistencies and absurdities in current labelling laws, what this reveals about industry influence and lobbying, and why situations like this should encourage us to question broader claims made about dairy, from health and sustainability to ethics.Order my new book How to Go (and Stay) Vegan here.For more exclusive content and personal writing from me, check out my Substack here.On my Substack, I share not only my own reflections and personal thoughts on veganism, but also my journey and struggles.
