LAB-GROWN WHOLE MILK HITS THE U.S.

Boston-based startup Brown Foods is making waves in the dairy industry with the debut of UnReal Milk, the world’s first lab-grown whole cow’s milk. This innovative product is created without the use of a single cow, utilizing mammalian cell culture to replicate the taste, texture, and nutritional profile of traditional dairy milk.

UnReal Milk stands out from other dairy alternatives due to its ability to mimic conventional milk in every aspect. Unlike precision fermentation, which produces specific dairy proteins, mammalian cell culture recreates complete milk. This means UnReal Milk can be processed into butter, cheese, ice cream, and other dairy products, just like traditional cow’s milk.
