Scientists at San Francisco-based biotech start-up Muufri -- (get it, moo free?) -- have developed a formula to re-create cow milk: six proteins for structure and function and eight fatty acids for flavor and richness, according to Muufri’s website.

The milk product is also free of lactose and cholesterol and because it’s created in a lab, its seen as a sustainable alternative to traditional dairy cattle operations.

According to Muufri, lactose is “partially indigestible by 75 percent of adults,” so the decision to leave it out creates a healthier product. Founders of Muufri, Ryan Pandya, Perumal Gandhi and Isha Datar, claim the milk will be free of all bacteria, giving their milk an “unprecedentedly long shelf life” with no pasteurization required.

NOTHING - imho - justifies a 3 to 1 price difference across regions like this.

Take it up with your government. They set the prices.

Why are there no bootleg milk trucks?

Because milk rots. Very fast. And if you bootleg long life milk then it is so much more expensive that it is cheaper to buy the stuff in the store.

Now there is cheese bootlegging.
