So if we would create milk in a lab, which is chemically identical to e.g. cow's milk, but without any udder secretion involved, that wouldn't be milk?

What is milk if not just fatty water with a couple of nutrients?

Our concept of "milk" goes beyond mere mammary gland secretes.

That's just it. You can't.

I can't no. But other people can.

We can already create meat in a lab. Milk is coming as well.
