The dairy industry is notoriously cruel and unsustainable, so were thrilled to have partnered with Miyokos Creamery to help spread some cruelty-free love this holiday season with a giveaway of plant-based dairy products that are sure to please even the biggest skeptics, Julie Massa, Wild Animal Project Manager at IDA, said. These plant-based alternatives are the future of a sustainable food system, and prove we can have our cheese and eat it too without causing harm.

Miyokos Creamery offers a variety of nut-based cheese wheels, spreads, and butters, along with a new line of cheeses and butters made from allergen-friendly oats, potatoes, and legumes. Miyokos Creamery is thrilled to team up with In Defense of Animals to make the holiday season merry and bright for animal advocates and cheese-lovers alike, Miyoko Schinner, founder of Miyokos Creamery, said.

Entries must be received by December 14 at 12:00pm PST and a winner will be announced on December 15.
