The popularity of Greek yogurt, and other strained yogurts, has blown up over the past decade. But, acid whey, a by-product of strained yogurt production, may be the worst environmental nightmare that you've never heard of.
Greek yogurt (or yoghurt for us Brits), Skyr, Lebneh and other strained yogurts are simply just natural yogurt strained to separate the yogurt solids from its liquid component. This liquid component is called "acid whey".
Unlike sweet whey, which is used in protein powders, acid whey has no commercial value. But, for every 1 kilogram of Greek yogurt that's produced, 2-3 kilograms of acid whey are left behind.
In this video, we'll explore what this mysterious by-product is, why its harmful to the environment, and some of the potential solutions that are being developed.
