Did someone say Alfredo?! This yummy snack brings joy not only to humans but also to cows. Mother cows in the dairy industry often have their babies stolen away from them just hours or days after birth so that their milk can be used to make dairy foods.

The dairy industry hurts cows and also has a huge detrimental effect on the environment. In California, America’s top milk-producing state, manure from dairy farms has contaminated hundreds of square miles of groundwater, rivers, and streams.
