Starbucks Ends Vegan Milk Upcharge

In a major victory for cows, Starbucks announced that it will stop charging extra for vegan milks in all stores in the US and Canada. The move follows a vigorous five-year campaign, including letters from more than 160,000 PETA supporters; protests at Starbucks locations around the country; help from actor James Cromwell, who glued his hand to a café counter in protest and starred in a satirical video calling out the upcharge; and an appeal from Sir Paul McCartney.
