Milk without cows? Inside the science of lab-grown milk shaking dairy world

Starting next year, Israelis will see lab-grown milk on shelves, produced by Remilk in partnership with Gad Dairies. This "cow-free" milk, available in 3% fat and vanilla flavors, is lactose-free and made without antibiotics. Remilk aims to enter the US market, joining other companies like Strauss Group and Imagindairy. Lab-grown milk mimics cow's milk nutritionally but is produced without cows, using methods like mammary cell cultures and precision fermentation. Challenges include high production costs and regulatory hurdles, but Israel is emerging as a leader in this innovative dairy sector.
