Myths in milk and dairy products
Original language description
A false irrational judgement based self-delusion created on subjective feelings of an individual or by a mechanical accepting of baseless information is considered as a myth. The myths described relate to the effect of milk on the human body, milk as a food product, yogurt and cheese. The main objective of the research was to answer the following question: Do the respondents understand the selected statements about nutrition as true or not? The research method was a questionnaire of its own design. Among the statements that respondents believe to be true include: yoghurt with a shelf life of one month must contain preservatives; durable milk contains preservatives, so-called "E"; milk cartons contain numbers to indicate how many times the milk has been pasteurized and put on sale again; milk fills up with mucus; not all yogurts contain living cultures; because of the dyeing, beetles are poured into the yoghurt; milk from a shop is thinned by water; fresh milk is healthier than durable, durable milk does not contain any vitamins and minerals; there are no cheeses without "E"; processed cheeses are cheap and therefore have to be of lower quality; ,milk is not suitable for people. Human is the only mammal drinking milk of some other mammal. The results of the questionnaire survey are in line with people’s long-term views on milk and dairy products.
