John Lennon once wrote, “Life is what happens while your busy making other plans.”  As we grow more concerned about how and where our food is produced something huge is coming at us and only a few people see it coming. It could represent the biggest change in agriculture in generations.  It is now possible to produce animal free milk.  I call it “cow-less” milk.  And it is real.

Next year a brand of cow-less milk called Muufri will hit the market.

According to what I have read, the milk is produced by genetically modified yeast and is exactly the same as real milk.  You will be able to make cheese with it and it doesn’t need to be pasteurized.  They can even modify the milk and eliminate the bad stuff that comes with cow’s milk.  Even if this product isn’t a success, we can all be sure that cow-less milk is on the way. Since milk is food, as long as it tastes like milk and is perceived to be nutritious, consumers will accept it.  If it is priced the same as cows’ milk they will buy it, too.  The only problem I foresee is producing enough of it to meet demand.
