Lab-Grown Milk Coming to a Supermarket Near You

Everything is getting scarier by the day, in our modern-day society, we as human beings have a lot to worry about, thanks to the ruling class of globalists including their corporations, the Military-Industrial Complex, the Zionist cabal, Big Oil, Big Pharma, Big Tobacco, Big Tech and of course, Big Ag or Big Food which is what I want to focus on because they are in the process of creating lab-grown milk which can become a reality in your local supermarket.

Forbes just published an article on lab-grown milk called ‘First Lab-Grown Whole Cow’s Milk to Debut in The U.S.’ based on a brand called (are you ready for this?) ‘UnReal Milk’, yes, it’s an Orwellian title to say the least.

One of the reasons for this type of milk is to fight “Climate Change.” They say that dairy farmers are looking for ways to reduce their reliance on cows because they “fart” greenhouse gases known as methane gas. The United Nations has two main organizations that focus on the environment and agriculture, The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) have claimed that a cow can release more than 500 liters of methane per day, which supposedly accounts for about 3.7 percent of all greenhouse gas emissions released around the world.

According to Forbes, “Dairy farming is under increasing pressure for its environmental impact, consuming vast resources and emitting methane— a greenhouse gas far more potent than CO₂. As the food industry searches for lower-carbon alternatives, Boston-based startup Brown Foods is preparing to showcase UnReal Milk, the world’s first lab-grown whole cow’s milk— produced without a single cow.”

The lab-grown milk company, Brown Foods is a start-up company founded by Sohail Gupta, Bhavna Tandon and Avhijeet Kapoor. Gupta said that “UnReal Milk is produced using mammalian cell culture— replicating the nutrition, taste, and texture of traditional dairy. It can be processed into butter, cheese, and ice cream, offering a lower-carbon, cruelty-free alternative to conventional milk. Brown Foods claims its production method slashes carbon emissions by 82%, water use by 90%, and land use by 95%, without relying on livestock”.

Lab tests are already taking place according to biopharmaceutical manufacturing expert, Dr. Richard Braatz, who is a Professor of Chemical Engineering at MIT and is on the Scientific Advisory board for Brown Foods:

The first version of UnReal Milk is already undergoing lab validation. Independent testing from the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research, affiliated with MIT, confirmed the presence of all essential dairy proteins, making the product structurally identical to traditional milk. Brown Foods has also confirmed that UnReal Milk contains the same milk fats, primarily triglycerides, and carbohydrates found in conventional dairy

Rising greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation, and water scarcity linked to traditional animal agriculture have spurred innovation in plant-based, fermentation-derived, and lab-grown proteins. With increasing investment and technological advancements, these alternatives are rapidly moving from niche products to mainstream options.

In the lab-grown space, meat has dominated the spotlight, securing $2 billion in investments in 2022 and USDA approval in 2023, but lab-grown dairy is still carving out its place in the market. According to The Insight Partners, the dairy alternatives sector is on track to expand from $31.13 billion in 2023 to $70.60 billion by 2031. Some analysts project that animal-free dairy could eventually capture up to 33% of the $893 billion traditional dairy market

The idea of creating dairy products in labs has gained attention over the last few years since the growing concerns over Climate Change. An article published in 2022 by Global Corporate Venturing ‘Is lab-grown milk ready for the mainstream?’ says that Bill Gates and Israel has also been involved in the lab-grown milk business:

Since 2018, GCV has reported around 20 corporate investments in various lab-grown meat and milk startups such as Israel-based milk developer Imagindairy, which raised $15m in its latest seed funding round, with the Israel-based Strauss Group as their corporate investor. Motif FoodWorks, a food technology company developing alternative milks, also raised $226m in a series B round with Bill’s Gates Breakthrough Energy Ventures participating.

Israel, in particular, has become a hotspot for various lab-grown milk startups with the country seeking to be the first to end the climate and global food shortage crisis

Efforts to produce milk without cows are taking various forms. Senara, a German startup, is growing cell-cultured mammary cells in partnership with dairy farmers, blending biotechnology with traditional milk production. Wilk, an Israeli venture, focuses on producing cultured milk fats, used in making cheese and yogurt. These approaches contrast with UnReal Milk, which is taking a fully lab-based route, aiming to replicate whole cow’s milk without relying on livestock or traditional dairy systems. For Brown Foods, the goal is not just to mimic dairy but to recreate it at a molecular level

It’s not just the US and Israel involved in producing lab grown products, Chile has its own laboratory experiments:

However, lab-grown milk units are appearing in other regions too. The Chile-based group NotCo, for example, uses laboratory and AI-based techniques to find plant combinations to replicate animal-based products.

In July 2021, NotCo raised $235m in a series D round that saw various corporations such as the global banking firm Catterton Partners and the US-based holdings company, Endeavor

They call it cell-cultured human milk for newborn babies and infants, the US based company ‘Biomilq’ was founded in 2019. Michelle Egger, co-founder, and the CEO of the company said that “Our product will shift demand away from the dairy industry, benefitting the planet while nourishing babies with a 100% human alternative feeding option,” she continued, “By shifting demand away from the liquid global dairy market, parents who cannot or choose not to breastfeed could still rely on a nutritious alternative feeding option without feeling the need to make a trade-off between their child’s health and the environment.”

Egger also said that “Scale-up and regulatory obstacles are a consistent challenge in the cellular agriculture industry,” She claims that this process will be a viable nutritious option for babies, “With that being said, in preparation for our upcoming product, we have begun engineering work to translate our experimental results at the benchtop scale to pilot production, making milk outside the body a reality that will lead to a novel option for infant nutrition.

Dr. Joseph Mercola has criticized Big Ag and their plans to create fake foods for many years once said that “The justification for creating synthetic milk substitutes is, of course, preventing and reversing “climate change.” That’s the justification used to sell virtually all fake foods. In reality, however, they will perpetuate and worsen adverse effects on the environment.” Mercola made it clear that “Lab-created foods are ultraprocessed and therefore qualify as junk food. Fake meat and dairy cannot replace the complex mix of nutrients found in grass fed beef and dairy, and it’s likely that consuming ultraprocessed meat and milk alternatives may lead to many of the same health issues that are caused by a processed food diet.”

From lab-grown meats, chicken, seafood, and even pet foods, now they want you and your children to drink lab-grown milk that you might find in your local supermarket all in the name of fighting climate change.

You don’t have to use immortal cell lines to do targeted aka precision fermentation. A number of Israeli companies specifically don’t use immortal cell lines they use regular cells harvested via biopsy means. The Israelis are the world leaders in precision fermentation. You take the cells out ,grab the DNA you need for whatever protein ,lipid or triglyceride you want to make and put that into a ecoli or yeast cell which then is happy to churn out what you asked it too.

This company took a single egg and plans to grow steaks with it ,none of them using immortal cell lines. Egg cells are programmable inot anything the cow makes as the universal starter cells.

I think people miss the larger point. Humans need to get off this rock. We are never taking cows or any other livestock to space the mass balance will not allow for it let alone the space, and feed requirements. All this lab grown, cultured food is SPACE FOOD that is what humans are taking to Mars and elsewhere. It’s when not if anymore. Boomers may not life long enough to see humans not only on Mars but living in it, but genZ certainly will see it. Gen Alpha probably will have some of its members born on Mars thanks to Elon and his BFR errr starship I still wanted him to call it the Big F.... Rocket.

Humans also use nearly 70% of the arable land to grow feed for livestock and yet 4 billion humans have chronic protein defficiency. There is not enough land nor feed to have 8 billion let alone ten billion eating like Americans or even Europeans.

When these lab products come down in prices to be cheaper than traditional protein sources people will make the switch for purely economical reasons or don’t and just pay the higher price for the competing product.

They are right in that even with the energy needed to make the steel tanks the yields are so high and the lifespan of the tanks so long that yeah it’s 90% less energy than growing feed , harvesting feed, transporting feed, the cow takes 10 lbs of feed to make one lb of live weight not meat weight that is only 40% or so of the on the hoof weight of a steer. Most is bone,fat,hide,and guts.

Then remember that plants only turn less than 1% of solar energy into total plant mass which includes the roots,stalks,and leaves. So a fraction of a fraction of 1% actually makes it into the corn kernels that you are feeding those cows with. But but grassfed cows, no most American cattle are corn fed in feedlot operations. That is what allows American beef to be cheap, if we mandated only grass feed cattle we would have prices like the EU or Argentina.

Now compare that to precision fermentation processes that can use a chemical substrate for its energy source, say acetic acid ,formic acid,glucose,or sucrose the list is long. Every one of those substrates can be made at high Faraday efficiency from CO2 gas,water and electrons. For acetic acid and formic 90% plus are the norm now.that means 90% of your electrical power ends up in the desired product. This means you can turn solar photons into electrons via solar panels at 25-40% efficiency then take those electrons and turn them into microbe food at 90% plus. That is a factor of 20 to 40 more per square meter of sunlit ground vs plants. Humans have not just exceeded nature we took a order of magnitude jump past anything nature could ever do.

You don’t even need solar panels just use nukes one 1000 megawatt sized reactor could produce enough synthetic growth substrate or go directly to electrofood to feed a city sized population all the protein,lipids,starches they need. Scientists have already taught microbes to eat electrons , CO2 and water and make complete proteins, any number of lipids,and triglycerides, starches and glucose or sucrose. Glucose fuels every cell in our bodies and every other mammal too it is the universal sugar fuel every cell uses.

Lab food is not coming it’s here and not going away especially as our human population grows and resources get depleted.
