Beetles For Breakfast: What The Fda Should Be Telling You, Kaycee L. Wolf

Imagine sitting down to breakfast and eating strawberry yogurt with a glass of grapefruit juice.

Something To Celebrate?: Demoting Dairy In Canada's National Food Guide, Maneesha Deckha
Journal of Food Law & Policy
In early 2019, the Canadian Government released the much-anticipated new Canada Food Guide. It is a food guide that de-emphasizes dairy products and promotes plant-based eating. Notably, in the new version, milk and milk products are de-listed as one of the previously four essential food groups.
