The Dairy Industry Has an Animal Welfare Problem Most Consumers Never See — Sander Van Stee on What Ethical Sourcing Actually Requires

Most people who care about where their food comes from think about meat. Dairy welfare is a conversation that happens far less often — and according to Sander Van Stee, that needs to change. The conditions under which dairy animals are raised affect not just the animals themselves but the quality and integrity of the food that ends up on your table. He joins Stacey Chillemi to pull back the curtain on what conventional dairy farming practices actually look like, why pasture-raising and ethical sourcing produce meaningfully different outcomes for both animal welfare and consumer health, and what the future of sustainable dairy farming could look like if the industry is willing to make the shift. What he shares about the gap between the pastoral imagery on most dairy packaging and the reality of how that milk was produced, the strategies that are already working for farms committed to doing it differently, and what consumers can do to use their purchasing decisions as a force for change will leave you with a clearer and more honest picture of one of the most overlooked corners of animal agriculture. The dairy aisle looks simple. This episode shows you what is actually behind it. Don't miss out on this eye-opening discussion that will leave you inspired to make a positive impact in the world of animal agriculture.
