267 Words2 Pages

The development of dairy products dates back to the beginning of the 17th century. Migrants brought cattle from Europe and provided people with dairy products and meat. There were many different breeds of cattle, including Durham, Ayrshires, Jerseys, Guernsey and Brown Swiss imported, but it was not until the late 19th century that cattle began to be used exclusively in the dairy industry (USDA, 2018). Initially, in rural America, milk and dairy products were mainly used for homed or local use. The main products of this period were organic dairy products with great health benefits but very short shelf life.

    In simple terms, dairy is any food made from the milk products of animals, or produced in the mammary glands. Lactose is a type of sugar contained in any mammal’s milk and all humans are born with an intolerance to it. This is caused when the body does not produce enough of the lactase enzyme to break down the lactose. Ironically, milk, cream, butter, cheese and yogurt are all derived from dairy.

  • Consumerism In The 1920s

    The 1920s were marked by an increase in consumerism due to a booming economy post-World War I (CrashCourse, 2013), the increasing popularity of consumer debt (CrashCourse, 2013) and an increase in the mass production of consumer goods (Osburn, n.d.). Coupled with technological advances, families now had access to mass media (in the form of the radio and television) and modern conveniences, such as household appliances and automobiles. Radio and television broadcasts helped to build a mass culture, where consumers were watching, listening, purchasing and emulating the same things across the nation (Osburn, n.d.). Women’s suffrage granted women the right to vote; some women took this new found voting freedom as license to break from traditional female roles in other areas and began dressing and

  • Milk Industry In The 1800s

    804 Words  | 4 Pages

    From the destruction of the swill milk industry to the standardization of grades of milk, public health officials started to become more aware of the negative effects that poorly produced milk and poorly pasteurized milk can have on the population. With regular inspections of the facilities of production along with a strict system for dealing with those who did not comply, America was able to transform milk from a product that only the wealthy few can enjoy safely to something that everyone can drink without worrying about catching tuberculosis or scarlet fever. Finally, as the milk industry grew, so did its need for transportation, which were mainly railroads. These railroads completely revolutionized the way people thought about milk by introducing them to new problems that they had to solve, which took into consideration the shelf life of milk. With these practices, the farmers also started to demand a fairer price for transportation, which allowed them to focus on the important issues of creating quality milk instead of whether they can get the milk to the consumer without losing profit.
