Cheese made from breast milk - Eww!

Here is just a quick tidbit that I couldn't help but pass on.

All you moms who have ever breastfed your babies know how precious breast milk can be.  It has often been referred to as gold.  You get as much as you can, save it, and don't waste it at any cost.  Well, apparently a New York City chef felt the same way about his wife's breast milk and decided to make cheese out of it sell it as an appetizer in his restaurant.  Now tell me honestly, would you in any way, shape, or form knowingly order breast milk cheese at a restaurant?

They say it's very healthy. Maybe he's on to something!

If you can squeeze it from a cow, why can't you squeeze it from a woman! Okay, ew....I couldn't even write that whole sentence without cringing...

It reminds me of a friend's episode where they dare Ross to try Carol's (baby mama) breast milk. As Rachel so eloquently puts it, "It's juice squeezed from a person!"

Um, no thank you.

Funny story, my husband was a loan officer at a bank. One day one of the "regulars" brought in a pumpkin pie for the bank manager and insisted he try it while she was there. She kept saying, "Isn't it so good? Doesn't it taste extra creamy? Doesn't it have a great flavor?" And the manager - not thinking it was anything special, but not wanting to hurt her feelings - told her it was very creamy and tasty. She said, "Oh good! I knew you'd like it. I used my own milk." (and pointed at her chest) AHHHHH! True story.

Um, erg, I couldn't... but I actually knew a family who did this themselves! Bless those hearty enough to do it, but no!

Does it come with a free burp and nap afterwords? I may think about it.
