I assume whales probably carry a lot of milk though, so if someone is killing whales I guess it’s good it’s being used for something… although that gives more profit to the whalers so maybe not.

According to their process page the whales are guided into a harness and then milked. Whether or not we should believe it, I cannot say.

The pics of the team seem a bit AI to me, also when googling their names there are no clear links connecting those names to whale dairy besides that website. This (and how unrealistic the process sounds) leads me to believe that this is not real.

they look like stock photos. the address at the bottom (Pismo beach CA) seems real enough. (at least the address comes back to deep sea.)
Dunno if the process is real. It seems… not likely to produce a whole lot of cheese, really. I’m a little curious as to the actual prices, though. If it’s like… insane-per-pound… maybe there is enough interest in it. But given how many whales get taken to commercial fishing; I imagine there’s likely to be some on the market.

The address doesn’t exist. Juniper street doesn’t go up to 215
