LONDON — Local government officials said Monday they have confiscated ice cream made with human breast milk from a London shop amid concerns the dessert is unsafe.

Is the breast milk pasteurized?

No, it’s only up to my chest...

Don’t recognize the face, though...

Some bad things can be passed on through mother’s milk. Depending on the mother, some are told not to nurse their babies for that reason.

It was observed on another thread that it’s somehow strange that we find it unacceptable to drink human milk, when we have no problem at all with drinking basically the same thing from a different species. It’s curious.

It’s still creepy, but it’s an interesting observation nonetheless.

Here's my observation. I have no problem eating beef (meat from another species), and I sure don't want to eat humans.

Other than humans, can you name one species that nurses its young/requires milk, all through its adult life?

Now that you mention it, I do remember that story. The eeeeew factor just goes through the roof! lol

There are some people that drink urine, too.

I couldn’t even drink fenugreek tea because the smell and look got to me.

Beef, swine, fish, and poultry are favorites. Cannibalism is something I pray I never experience. Though I do remember an experience in a mine once ... in a song, when Joe was looking at Timothy.
