‘Perfect storm’ of issues behind latest price hike causing pain at the supermarket checkout
It’s an essential item that most Aussies consume daily – and it just got a whole lot more expensive, with even more pain on the way.
“Dairy is becoming more expensive to make, with farmers slugged by skyrocketing prices when it comes to things like grain and fertiliser.
We also have fewer cows in Australia in the wake of the drought of 2018-19, which saw many farmers cull their livestock to get through that tough period.

I can’t even share the constant stream of “[product] without [animal].” Here’s another $25 mil thrown at some “Mozzarella without cows”: 🤮 — investment round led by ADM, the biggest animal feed company in the world. Doesn’t make sense, unless you recognize this is an agenda, the post-animal economy, and they are funding its implementation:

ADM, Kraft & Dr Oetker back bovine-free mozzarella maker New Culture in $25m round
US alt-dairy startup New Culture has raised $25 million in Series A funding to bring its bovine-free mozzarella product to market.
Founded in 2018 by CEO Matt Gibson and chief scientific officer Inja Radman, New Culture is using precision fermentation technology to produce casein – the key protein in bovine-derived dairy products that helps give mozzarella and similar cheeses their characteristic stretch, melt, and "mouthfeel.”

Could Sunflowers Solve the Cream Cheese Crisis? Spero® Says Yes. Expanding Into Food Service.
“Don't panic bagel connoisseurs and professional shmear-ers, Spero sunflower cream cheese is here to save the day, and emits an estimated 99% less CO2 than dairy!
On October 28, Market Realist was one of the early reporters of a nationwide cream cheese shortage. Fast forward to December, the shortage has become a full-fledged crisis, making headlines on CNN, Food & Wine, NBC and more. Supply chains are unable to determine when stock will be replenished. Most affected are New York City bagel shops and grocery stores with the exception of Black Seed Bagels, an artisan bagel shop led by James Beard-nominated executive chef and head baker, Dianna Daoheung. Black Seed partners with Spero® Foods, also a woman-owned business, that makes cream cheese out of organic sunflower seeds.
If the name Spero® sounds familiar, the company was recently featured on The Today Show, TED, Forbes, Fast Company, and is the 3rd Fastest Growing Plant-Based Cheese in the US (SPINS). Led by engineer-scientist Phaedra, Spero® is a plant-based dairy Company that makes dairy alternatives from seeds.
