SAN LEANDRO, Calif., Jan. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Four out of five diners surveyed said they are open to a new kind of mozzarella that isn't made from animal milk, even though most of them identify as omnivores who regularly eat animal products.

New Culture is the first company in the world to make dairy mozzarella without the animal milk that turns many consumers off due to nutrition, dietary, ethical and environmental concerns.
