Every Wisconsin farm I’ve visited near my dad’s cheese factory has cows grazing on lush pastures.
"100% Grassfed" is one of the most misunderstood phrases in our industry. When a brand says "100% Grassfed", it does not mean the cows ate 100% grass.
The loophole is farms should go through an agricultural equation to figure out the exact percentage of grass the cows are eating in their diet. When farms register at under 100%, they can still say "100% grassfed", when it's not 100% grass fed. Crazy, huh?
The brand should carry an exact percentage in their Trademark. Very few follow this rule. We've asked many brands for this Trademark, and often we get documents literally produced by them. It holds no value in such cases.
Wisconsin farmers have their cows in incredible pastures eating grass and we're thankful for over 700 Wisconsin farms for helping us!
Do the cows who support our whey eat grass? YES, as much as possible.
