DUBAI (Reuters) Hard on the hooves of cow's and goat's milk, European grocery shelves may soon be invaded by milk from that proverbial ship of the desert, the camel.
An animal famous for bad breath and ill humour might seem an unlikely source of liquid to lubricate a bowl of breakfast cereal or froth up a latte, but promoters from the United Arab Emirates say it is healthy -- and almost like mother's own.
"People with lactose intolerance can drink it with no problem, unlike cow's milk, it doesn't cause protein allergies, and it's high in insulin," said Ulrich Wernery, the scientific director of Dubai's Centre for Veterinary Research Laboratory.
Similar in taste and appearance to cow's milk, he said camel milk is closer in composition to human milk, making it a healthier option than cow milk.

Camel Milk? Interesting. I am allergic to cow milk so camel milk might be viable option....except it ain’t kosher...:)
It is good stuff in the dairy cases in the stores there and there is a Pudding they make from the first milk from momma Camel when she gives birth ,I have had that also delicious stuff.
I don’t think that is going to get a kosher hechsher from any certifying kosher agency no matter how low their standards!
And just think those little short people in Mongolia says the same thing about mares milk.
