Why was there a surcharge?

I'm not 100% sure, but I do know at least at the grocery store, every nondairy option is more expensive. Probably just sending the cost to the customer.

It’s kind of bullshit though. Plants have a shorter process to get from harvest to shelf than any animal product.

But milk is mass produced and subsided by the government.

[–] dojan@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

This is true. It’s really quite revolting that we pay taxes to fund animal exploitation.

Corporate greed? 🤔
