Breast milk in your sauce?

Ummm, I'll pass. My own mother was one thing - but from some stranger? Nuh-uh.

If you really think about it it's a lot less weird than drinking the breast milk of a completely different species...

Come to think of it, drinking milk the comes out of a dirty cow's breast does sound quite gross, though somehow it has become the social norm rather than drinking the more natural alternative-human breast milk.

Still, I'll be sticking with cows breast milk for now thank you very much

I heard about this on the way to work this morning on the radio. They were joking about what some of the more popular dishes would be called..."Swiss Miss Pudding" for dessert and maybe an after dinner drink called a "Nipochino."

It went down hill from there, lol.

I think it would be a bit weird eating there. For example- when the waitress comes to take your order, are you going to wonder if it's HER breast milk you are drinking? Blech!

I remember the hospital asking new mother's to donate when my daughter was born. They used it for the preemies.

Cows don't smoke, eat chicken wings, engage in unsafe sex, or a thousand other nasty practices. I'll drink their milk before a human's any day.

Depends on the restaurant, Hooters for instance.

I'm just thinking of health issues - what kinds of diseases can be transmitted by breast milk?

No, it isn't. Just like eating meat of another species being less weird than cannibalism.

Dirty????

Are you kidding????

Do you have any idea of the quality control and inspections that milk producers are subject to?
