Focusing on milk as a commodity, this book explores ethnocentric beliefs regarding its universal value, highlighting biological variations among populations and the political and economic influences on dietary policies and nutrition education. It emphasizes the relevance of a biocultural approach to food studies and examines how milk is culturally constructed, particularly in the context of students who either consume it daily or feel pressured to do so.
