Hahaha in reality the cows are treated perfectly well! They're only forcibly impregnated for their entire lives to facilitate a constant cycle of lactation and seperated from their children at birth. Perfectly happy cows! Your milkshake is worth it! :D
Don't worry! Synthetic milk is right around the corner (within a couple of decades), soon we'll be able to save the cows. They'll get to retire to a farm somewhere and live happily ever after.
The dairy and beef lobbies would like to have a word with you, if you'll please just step a little to the right?
Non-animal milks have been around for a long time.
Non-mammalian milk?
Plant milks.
Synthetic milk already sort of exists. Perfect Day Foods uses some sort of fermentation process.
Yeah, Remilk is building a big factory ("the world's largest fermentation facility") here in Denmark to produce synthetic milk, but I wasn't aware if it was going to be used for consumer milk products straight away. Feels like it still needs some development.
