In health news, almond milk is increasing in popularity in the United States. According to a Chicago, Illinois market research firm, SymphonyIRI Group, there was a 13% growth in almond milk sales in 2010. Moreover, the US Department of Agriculture reports of a decline in the consumption of cow’s milk. Plant-based alternatives are being purchased more often as awareness of allergies and lactose intolerance increases and the adoption of the Earth-saving vegan diet grows.

Our thankfulness, SymphonyIRI Group, for your results which highlight the increased consumption of these delectable and healthful beverages! We pray that more and more individuals continue to choose delicious animal-free foods as part of their lifestyle of kindness.
