New name for Le Lait
Jean-Louis Maubois(Published online: 4 January 2008)
When the journal Le Lait was created 86 years ago, dairy research was just in its beginning all over the world, including France. Results of experiments carried out in laboratories headed mainly by medical doctors (often pediatricians) and veterinarians were entirely published in French. This was done to help the dawning national dairy community to produce milk more hygienically and to transform it into various dairy products, notably liquid milks, cream, butter and the numerous typical cheese varieties for which France - the cheese country - was already renowned. It was thus able to provide French consumers with safe and tasty food.
