And people got fed up with that,” said Jean-Christophe Flatin, chief executive of the oat drink maker. Sales of plant-based milk in the US declined by 5 per cent to $2.8bn in 2024, while dairy milk sales rose by 1 per cent, according to trade group the Good Food Institute. Plant-based milk makes up about 14 per cent of total milk sales in the country.   Like much of the pl

No, your protein powder isn’t poisoning you New testing finds two-thirds of popular protein powders exceed lead limits — especially plant-based brands. What you need to know before your next scoop — and why the reality is different.

You may have read that your protein supplements are giving you lead poisoning. That's not the case. If you want to have protein shakes, that's fine. But whether you need to and whether they're safely regulated is a different story. My latest for @vox.com.

10 effective things citizens can do to make change in addition to attending a protest Once a democracy starts to erode, it can be difficult to reverse the trend. What does it take for democracies to bounce back from periods of autocratic rule?

The end of American democracy is not a foregone conclusion, despite the unprecedented rate of its decline. It will depend, in part, on the choices made by every American.
