The initiative of marking a day to celebrate and promote plant milk over dairy alternatives was taken up by a London-based businessman, Robbie Lockie, who is also the director and co-founder of Plant Based News. However, World Plant Milk Day is celebrated all over the world by the supporters of plant-based and vegan products.
Plant milk and dairy-free product lovers, as well as people who accept and promote veganism all around the world, look forward to celebrating World Plant Milk Day every year on August 22.
World Plant Milk Day was founded in 2017. Later in 2018, it was established as a partnership with ProVeg, making the campaign gain higher popularity among the masses.
Robbie Lockie, the co-founder and director of Plant Based News, marked August 22 as a day to celebrate the benefits of products that include plant-based, dairy-free products.
Tracing the timeline of how plant-based milk came into the limelight and gained recognition through World Plant Milk Day goes back to 1943.
World Plant Milk Day is more of a campaign promoted internationally as an initiative to encourage the consumption of plant-based and dairy-free products. Researchers and advocates of plant milk continuously motivate people to switch from fat milk to products such as almond milk and soy milk.
On World Plant Milk Day, one can try to make a shift in their consumption of dairy products by trying plant-based products which are usually extracted from grains, nuts, pseudocereals, seeds, coconut, legumes, potato, etc. Plant milk is also available in various flavors that you can try in order to celebrate the day. Other than plant milk, one can also choose to try other products that are plant-based, and which can also be cooked at home through recipes available on the internet.
World Plant Milk Day was celebrated on August 22, Sunday.
World Plant Milk Day was brought into recognition with the goal to make people aware of the benefits that we can achieve by shifting to plant-based alternatives from dairy products that are a part of our diet. These benefits are not only related to our health and nutrition, but are also related to stopping animal cruelty and environmental degradation.
World Plant Milk Day was founded back in 2017 by Robbie Lockie, an advocate of veganism. This day was further established as a campaign in 2018 with the increasing consumption and popularity of plant-based products, especially almond milk.
World Plant Milk Day is celebrated internationally.
Those who celebrate World Plant Milk Day on August 22 indulge in various activities, like cooking special plant-based and vegan recipes along with their friends and families. Some also enjoy taking a walk outside to appreciate and understand the importance of preserving nature.
Plant milk is rich in minerals and vitamins, such as calcium. Soy milk has a lot of soy protein. It is also preferred over dairy products since it is low in cholesterol and fat. The fat that is present in plant-based milk includes a combination of mono and polyunsaturated fats, which are healthy for the body.
