Attitudes toward milk alternatives and motives for (non-)consumption: an interview study with adolescents from Germany
Adolescents generally have positive attitudes toward milk alternatives, motivated by perceived health, environmental, and animal welfare benefits. However, sensory properties and production-related uncertainties are barriers to consumption. These findings highlight the importance of addressing these concerns to foster the acceptance of sustainable milk alternatives among young people.
