Al-Marsad newspaper: The Food and Drug General Authority confirmed that what is being circulated is incorrect that milk and dairy products are unsafe and harmful to health.

The authority pointed out, through its official account on Twitter, that the materials used in milk-like products are subject to the technical regulations and specifications issued by the Food and Drug Administration.

She explained that dairy and milk products that are called “similar” are products in which milk fat is completely or partially replaced by vegetable oils, such as cream-like, evaporated milk and cheese-like.

The authority indicated that the reasons for replacing milk fat with vegetable oils are because they are less expensive than milk fat, which affects the final price of the product.

On the reason for the label “similar”, the authority stated in an infographic on its Twitter account that the label came to increase the ability of the consumer to choose the most appropriate products for him with ease and ease.
