Scientific Validation and Key Dairy Proteins
In just three years, Brown Foods achieved this breakthrough, with third-party analysis from MIT’s Whitehead Institute confirming key dairy proteins like Alpha-S1-Casein, Alpha-S2-Casein, Beta Casein, and others. This validation highlights the precision and scientific foundation behind UnReal Milk.

UnReal Milk offers a more sustainable alternative to traditional dairy. It has an 82% lower carbon footprint, 90% less water usage, and 95% less land requirement. This innovation addresses climate concerns and resource scarcity, providing a cruelty-free, environmentally friendly dairy solution.
A Vision for the Future: Scalability and Consumer Impact
Brown Foods plans to introduce version 2.0 of UnReal Milk by late 2025, followed by a market pilot in 2026. The company is also leveraging AI to optimize bioprocessing for faster, more precise market readiness. Having raised $2.3M in funding, Brown Foods is on track to redefine the future of dairy.
