PETA & human breast milk

PETA want icecream to be made from human breast milk......

[url]http://blog.peta.org/archives/2008/09/breast_is_best.php[/url]

Storchen, a (very innovative) restaurant in Switzerland, has just announced that they will be unveiling a new menu that includes soups, stews, and sauces made with at least 75 percent human breast milk. Some folks might think that drinking human breast milk is strange … but really, what's even stranger is that humans are the only species on the planet that drinks the milk of another species. Storchen's new menu got us thinking … which product would be fabulously awesome if it were made with breast milk instead of cow's milk? (Light bulb!) Ben and Jerry's! So we wrote a letter to the good people at Ben and Jerry's, asking them to switch from cow's milk to breast milk. We explained that using cow's milk for their ice cream is a hazard to consumers' health. Even Dr. Spock spoke out against [URL="http://www.milksucks.com/sickkids.asp"]feeding cow's milk to children[/URL], saying it may play a role in the onset of anemia, [URL="http://www.milksucks.com/mucus.asp"]allergies[/URL], and [URL="http://www.milksucks.com/babydiab.asp"]juvenile diabetes[/URL] and, in the long term, can set kids up for a lifetime of [URL="http://www.milksucks.com/fat.asp"]obesity[/URL] and [URL="http://www.milksucks.com/heartdisease.asp"]heart disease[/URL] (America's number one cause of death). [URL="http://www.peta.org/pdfs/maherbaby1.pdf"][IMG]http://blog.peta.org/archives/billm.JPG[/IMG][/URL] But it's not all about us humans. Animals will also benefit from the switch to breast milk. Because, like all mammals, cows only give milk during or after pregnancy, in order for humans to constantly milk them, they are [URL="http://www.goveg.com/factoryFarming_Cows_Dairy.asp"]forcefully impregnated every nine months[/URL]. Many live in filthy conditions and are forced to give 10 times more milk than they would naturally. It's truly an awful life. So think about it, Ben and Jerry's. We here at PETA would be super-stoked if your ice cream went vegan … we'd buy it by the truckload!

Re: PETA & human breast milk

yeah, read this in the morning, and my initial reaction was WTF?!?!?

But if you think about it, we ARE drinking another animal's breast milk. I mean its a COW for god's sake, you might as well drink milk from a llama or pig! Technically speaking, human breast milk is probably the best for you.

I'm glad I very rarely drink milk.

This is actually one of the few things I would support from PETA.

Re: PETA & human breast milk

What's it matter? We have to homogenize the hell out of milk anyway. I don't see any benefit to this...
