Suckling on Baby Gaga's Bitty

I'm surprised the Food Safety Board haven't nipped that one in the bud. http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/weird-news/2011/02/25/restaurant-serves-up-breast-milk-ice-cream-as-new-dessert-to-customers-86908-22948596/

Restaurant serves up breast milk ice-cream as new dessert to customers

Feb 25 2011

A RESTAURANT is causing a stir after revealing a new addition to the dessert menu - breast milk ice-cream.

The dessert - playfully titled Baby Gaga - is available at Icecreamists in London's Covent Garden for £14 per serving.

The ice-cream is churned from the breast mile donated by 15 women, who responded to an ad on an online forum for mothers.

Matt O'Connor, founder of Icecreamists, believes the new-found delicacy will be a success and said: "If it's good enough for children, it's good enough for us."
It's understood women are paid £15 for every 10 ounces of breast milk donated.

I'm surprised the Food Safety Board haven't nipped that one in the bud.

from the breast mile

What's a breast mile?

Shrewd marketing ploy for the restauant, everyone will be talking about them.

Why would anyone donate breast milk to be eaten as ice cream when they could donate it to the milk banks to help premature babies...

£14 a serving? I'd rather freeze my own lactate and stick a stick in it.

Why? I'd say it's far safer than most of the crap available today. I'd definitely give it a whirl, but for £14 you'd expect to be able to milk it yourself.

True, you could say it's stranger that we drink the milk that's meant for calfs.
