No animals were harmed in the making of this milk
We can all agree that dairy milk is a must-have in any home. And, from a young age, we have been encouraged to drink a glass of milk to reap its health benefits.
However, in recent years, plant-based milk alternatives have taken the world by storm, with almond and oat counterparts replacing the traditional milk made from animals. While various foreign brands such as Chobani and Oatly dominated the shelves early on, Asian brands such as Oatside and Very Dairy are slowly catching up on this trend in the world of sustainability.
Very Dairy is the newest addition to the market; it’s an animal-free milk made from animal-free whey protein that carries the “same protein found in traditional dairy, but without involving a single cow,” shares Very Dairy senior vice president Alex Brittain.

The delicious milk substitute is available in three flavours: plain, strawberry and chocolate. Each variant is formulated with Perfect Day’s animal-free whey protein, which is created from microflora through precision fermentation. The microflora is fed with water, sugar and vitamins, which are then converted into milk proteins identical to those produced by cows. This animal-free milk offers the same nutritional benefits as those from cows, sans the additional lactose, cholesterol and hormones.
If you’re looking for a product perfect for your morning cuppa, go for the plain blend that offers fresh and creamy flavours similar to traditional milk. For something more indulgent, the chocolate blend is made from premium cocoa and offers rich chocolatey notes.

Apart from being kinder to people, the milk is also kinder to the planet. “Very Dairy is committed to making real dairy in a whole new way—one that uses less water, less energy, and emits less greenhouse gasses. We believe Very Dairy animal-free milk can positively impact our food system, helping to create a kinder, greener future,” adds Brittain.
Whether you are looking for a new dairy-free product, or looking to add more protein into your diet, this new alternative is worth a try. Who knows? It may just be your new favourite drink.
Very Dairy is available for purchase at FairPrice, Cold Storage, Giant Hypermarket and RedMart.
