Dairy milk made without cows available at S'pore supermarkets for S$4.95
The brand was launched by California-based food tech company Perfect Day, which developed a proprietary precision fermentation technology to create the "world's first" animal-free milk protein.
The microorganism used to create Very Dairy milk is a fungus that historically lives in soil.
When provided the genetic information to make whey and casein proteins, it can convert plant sugar into these main proteins found in milk through the process of fermentation.
According to the brand, not only is the milk made without animals, but it is also more environmentally friendly and less resource intensive.
Compared to conventional production methods, their whey production process reduces water use by up to 99 per cent, emits up to 97 per cent less greenhouse gas emissions, and uses up to 60 per cent less non-renewable energy.
