I scream, you scream, we all scream for breast milk - wait, what?! Yes, you heard right. A London ice cream shop, Icecreamists, created a new flavor 'Baby Gaga' which consists of madagascan vanilla pods, lemon zest, and human breast milk. Jeez, it sounded really tasty until the last ingredient.
Icecreamists founder, Matt O'Connor says "It's pure, it's natural, it's organic, and it's free range - and if it's good enough for our kids, it's good enough to use in our ice cream". Hmm, well there ya go folks.
As liberal as I am on many topics, I can't help but feel a bit queasy when thinking of sampling breast milk ice cream. Although, I believe cow's milk comes in almost as close to breast milk on the gross level. If you've ever read Skinny Bitch, you will start to think of milk in a whole new light. The thought of it having to be heavily pasteurized due to the blood and puss of the cow's teats is pretty nauseating, huh? As the Skinny Bitches say, "We are the only species on the planet that drinks the milk of another species. We are the only species on the planet that drinks milk as adults. Why? Because the multi-million dollar dairy industry has convinced us that we need milk for healthy bones." It's just weird that humans drink cow's milk and it's sad that those poor cow's are constantly getting impregnated to get milked by machines. It's unnatural all around. Now if only rice or almond milk ice cream became just as popular.
Okay, now back to those crazy Brits...
