I have been trying all different types of milk alternatives like oat milk, almond milk etc. But none of them taste similar to cow’s milk. I know a lot of it has to do with familiarity with the milk I’ve been drinking all my life. But I want to understand why there has not been a lab-created cow’s milk yet.

I’m not so sure it’s difficult to create synthetic cow’s milk as much as it’s substantially more expensive than just getting it from a cow.
The purpose of the dairy substitutes is generally for people who cannot drink milk for one reason or another, and you’re not really going to make a milk substitute that the main market for can’t consume (lactose intolerant people).
