Arla Bovaer Additive Sparks Dairy Product Boycott

The provided text is an article from the Daily Mail Online reporting on a consumer boycott targeting Arla Foods and related brands due to the use of a controversial cow feed additive called Bovaer. Customers, particularly in the U.K., are reportedly avoiding products like Lurpak and Cravendale over fears, widely circulated on social media platforms such as TikTok, that the additive may cause cancer and fertility issues. While regulators and experts insist the product is safe and does not transfer into milk, the article details the extensive list of brands and supermarkets caught in the backlash, including Starbucks and Asda, due to their association with Arla Foods. The manufacturer of Bovaer has dismissed the claims as misinformation, clarifying that the safety warnings referenced online are standard for industrial handling and do not apply to the end consumer.
