Magi Richani is the founder of San Francisco-based Nobell Foods, a startup company developing a new kind of cheese made from soybeans. She says plant-based cheese not only accommodates people who can’t consume dairy, but it also could be key to more sustainable food production worldwide.

“The reality is that when you raise an animal for food, it’s not just the animals, you are actually growing crops, you are clearing land, and you’re raising the animal for years so it builds biomass,” Richani explained. “It’s an extremely inefficient supply chain.”

Nobell is particularly focused on creating plant-based casein, which is a protein produced when a cow gives birth and is present in the milk for its offspring. It is the ingredient that gives dairy cheese its unique stretchy texture. If Nobell is able to go to market and have the kind of impact it’s hoping to, then plant-based cheese could help us stretch toward a more sustainable future.

Comentário do professor

Comentário: A afirmação está correta, pois a palavra "offspring" se refere à prole de um animal, que pode incluir filhotes de diversas espécies. No contexto do texto, "calf" é especificamente o termo em inglês para o filhote da vaca, que é a espécie mencionada. Portanto, substituir "offspring" por "calf" mantém a coerência e a correção do texto, uma vez que ambos os termos se referem ao mesmo conceito, embora "offspring" seja mais geral.
