Shop to make breast milk ice cream



– Thu Feb 24, 10:49 am ET

LONDON (Reuters) – A specialist ice cream parlor plans to serve up breast milk ice cream and says people should think of it as an organic, free-range treat.

The breast milk concoction, called the "Baby Gaga," will be available from Friday at the Icecreamists restaurant in London's Covent Garden.

Icecreamists founder Matt O'Connor was confident his take on the "miracle of motherhood" and priced at a hefty 14 pounds ($23) a serving will go down a treat with the paying public.

The breast milk was provided by mothers who answered an advertisement on online mothers' forum Mumsnet.

Victoria Hiley, 35, from London was one of 15 women who donated milk to the restaurant after seeing the advert.

Hiley works with women who have problems breast-feeding their babies. She said she believes that if adults realized how tasty breast milk actually is, then new mothers would be more willing to breast-feed their own newborns.

"What could be more natural than fresh, free-range mother's milk in an ice cream? And for me it's a recession beater too -- what's the harm in using my assets for a bit of extra cash," Hiley said in a statement.

"I tried the product for the first time today -- it's very nice, it really melts in the mouth."

The Baby Gaga recipe blends breast milk with Madagascan vanilla pods and lemon zest, which is then churned into ice cream.

O'Connor said the Baby Gaga was just one of a dozen radical new flavors at the shop.

"Some people will hear about it and go, 'yuck' but actually it's pure, organic, free-range and totally natural," he said. "I had a Baby Gaga just this morning and I feel great."

Try my new product, the spunksicle. Think of it as a protein packed, organic super treat.

Maybe they could make one modeled from a lingerie shop, "Victoria's Secretions" flavor.

I just hope this stuff is pasteurized.

LOL! I love the expression "free-range breast milk".

Personally I'd like to try it - although I prefer it straight from the tap to ice cream form - but I'm way too cheap to pay $23.

Seriously. I have an image of my wife grazing naked in a field somewhere.

I have a feeling I'm setting myself up for some smartass remarks...
 
And yet you have absolutely no problem eating ice cream made by squeezing the tits of a farm animal.

It's amazing how pavlovian some folks are.

Gelatin from horses hooves. Milk from cow tits. (I'm saying Tits intentionally, FYI). Goat cheese. Raw fish eggs are a delicacy. Cooked non-fertilized baby chickens are a breakfast everywhere.

*rollseyes*

Food is absolutely disgusting when you think about it.

I'd try it, but if it was expensive, I doubt it'd find serious space in my freezer.

I only try not to think of the slaughter we wreak on the plant kingdom.
 
Come on come on, its the ultimate milk advertising slogan, Milk like your mother used to make.

After all, how many ice cream cones are bought by cows or goats? Us human consumers want the genuine article, accept no inferior substitutes.

If there's really a market, I'll start talking to some single moms I know in section 8 housing. This could be America's next bubble.
 
They pasteurized the milk, BUT there is probably unpasteurized residue that ends up in the ice cream, whether it's from the workers' gloves or whatever-- And that means HIV risk. There's no HIV risk with milk from other animals, except other primates. The risk that hipster white women in London would have HIV is very slim, but would you drink breast milk from subsaharan Africa or DC?

I haven't been able to drink cow milk for years, because it's cow breast milk, that just grosses me out. Cooked non-fertilized baby chickens are delicious though.
 
I believe the UK sports the largest ave. bust size of any country.


This doesn't surprise me. Have you ever seen a dairy cow go without being milked? It is not a pretty site.

How can I be sure the chick who supplied the milk is hot?

Maybe somewhat a question, but how can we assume OCguy's mother was hot or not?

But if OCguy asks a stupid question, its not a looking good for OCguy's intelligence of his mom.

After all, in conventional milk advertising, they may tout the milk coming from happy cows, but I have yet to see that milk ad stating their milk comes from intelligent cows, and or especially sexually attractive cows.

There is something utterly perverted about a human demanding only milk from sexually attractive cows.


PS or PMS, I love such P&N threads such as this one. It allows full rein for the silly season. Why should it not be the silly season 365.25 days a year? After all, everyone loves Mom, apple pie, and a little ice cream on top.

I am pretty sure that since HIV is so unstable the virus would not live through the freezing.

No OCguy, I said we could not tell if your Mom was hot or not. Its seems to me on a funny thread, you are simply choosing to be thin skinned. My remarks could apply to anyone's mother including mine, you just happened to the straight man who showed the disconnect between how human's grade cows milk and human female sexuality,
