I wonder if it'll have identical cooking properties to milk. I like milk alternatives, but some recipes can't be fucked with, so I always have to keep some at hand.

Edit: It would be cool if artificial milk replaced large scale milk production, which is highly inefficient, and natural milk remained only for niche products like certain cheeses.

Great news. I don't miss drinking milk at all, where I live there are a million types of soy milk so if you can't find one you like, there is something wrong with you. It's true though that many recipes would be a lot easier. While I've bought and made some amazing vegan cheeses ('Gary') this could make the process a lot easier and more authentic, which would also help sway those people who ignore the cruelty-free, more environmentally-friendly option because it tastes slightly different to what they are used to.

Why go this far when you can simply drink human breast milk?

Gross out factor, inhumane, inefficient.

A vegan diet might actually be possible in the next decade or so if stuff like this and lab grown meat work

In neither the article nor the website could I find what plants they are using. Having a soy and almond allergy and then using either would make this awesome thing moot for me.

if it tastes as good as regular milk, im down.

But why?

Well for one, we won't have to keep cows in a cruel, unending state of pregnancy.

I love how straight up this answer is hahaha.

I only drink the finest Cambodian breast milks. And that gets pricey.

I would say the same about cow's milk. Drinking the pus-tainted secretions of a bovine teat isn't appealing to me. Locking up a sentient being in a 'rape rack' to impregnate them, steal their milk, kill their sons, and do the same to their daughters is not humane. The need to go through this entire process and feed huge amounts of plants to an animal to achieve this is both inefficient and environmentally damaging.

Too bad all these healthier products are always a more expensive alternative.
