I haven't had real fresh milk in decades.

On the subject of cows, here is a company that does embryo transplants for sheep and goats, and just started using the technique on cows. It's mostly for selective breeding for special characteristics such as weight and size, and the quantity and quality of milk. If the cow transplant success ratio can be as high as on sheep and goats, this can be a blockbuster. There would be no need to ship super bulls for breeding, and one super bulls can pass their genetic makeup to thousands, not just hundreds, of offprings for several generations.

There was one similar company (High Plains Genetics) in Colorado that went bankrupt because the success percentage was only 25%.
