Human Breast Milk Ice Cream @ Icecreamist

Only days after going on sale Westminster City Council have seized boutique ice cream shop, Icecreamist's, human breast milk ice cream following two complaints from the public over whether a shop should be selling edibles made from other people's bodily fluids. The local authority is currently awaiting guidance from the Food Standards Agency.

The human breast milk ice cream named "Baby Gaga" went on sale last Friday at the Icecreamists restaurant in London's Covent Garden and amazingly sold out of it's first batch.

Priced at £14 pounds, the ice cream was made with breast milk, Madagascan vanilla pods and lemon zest.

The Icecreamists said the breast milk was donated by mothers who responded to an online advertisement on mothers' forum Mumsnet, each being paid £15 for each 10 oz donation. All the milk "was screened in line with hospital/blood donor requirements." says owner and founder Matt O'Connor.

What's next breast milk cheese, skinny breast milk cappuccino? At what stage does it become unacceptable of what we put in our mouths? For instance, human blood, we eat black pudding which is pigs blood. Why can't we have human black pudding it's not flesh so it's not classed as cannibalism, yet that seams unacceptable but on the same premise as the breast milk it's a fluid and carries key nutrients that are good for us?
