This Week in Vegan News: 11/18
I wanted to test out a new feature here on the blog. So, for the next few weeks, I’ll be doing a weekly round-up of interesting vegan-centric news stories. FOOD + NUTRITION It’s Like Milk but Made for Humans Vegan oat-based milk alternative, Oatly, far exceeded sales goals thanks in part to a clever marketing campaign and has now inked a deal to increase its production 8-fold with the opening of a new bottling plant in Millville, New Jersey.
