    A restaurant in London's Covent Garden is serving a new range of ice cream, made with breast milk.
    The dessert, called Baby Gaga, is churned with donations from London mother Victoria Hiley, and served with a rusk and an optional shot of Calpol or Bonjela.
    Mrs Hiley, 35, said if adults realised how tasty breast milk was more new mothers would be encouraged to breastfeed.
    Each serving of Baby Gaga at Icecreamists costs £14.
    Mrs Hiley's donation was expressed on site and pasteurised before being churned with Madagascan vanilla pods and lemon zest.
    Icecreamists founder Matt O'Connor placed an advert appealing for breast milk donations and believes his new recipe will be a success.

    Victoria HileyMother"If it's good enough for our children, it's good enough for the rest of us," he said.
    "Some people will hear about it and go yuck - but actually it's pure organic, free-range and totally natural."
    Mrs Hiley, who gets £15 for every 10 ounces of milk she donates to the company, said it was a great "recession beater".
    "What's the harm in using my assets for a bit of extra cash?" she added.
    "I teach women how to get started on breastfeeding their babies. There's very little support for women and every little helps."
    Mr O'Connor said 14 other women had come forward to offer their services. Health checks for the lactating women were the same used by hospitals to screen blood donors.
    "No-one's done anything interesting with ice cream in the last hundred years," he added

    I would not want to eat icecream made from another woman's bodily fluids.

    FACT: Lady Gaga and Selma Hayek donate their breast milk for the sake of women everywhere.

    Lady Gaga had breast milk? Is she pregnant? Does she have children? Are we able to express milk without being pregnant????? I'm confused. :smt017


    And ewww!

    At the beginning of last year I read an article about a man who was making cheese from his wife's breast milk. Grossness. :smt078

    For some reason, this doesn't gross me out.

    I mean, we drink cow's milk...that's a random animal's bodily fluids... that seems like it should be less appealing than drinking breast milk to me. Call me crazy...

    lol

    So Ms. I Play on Both Sides of the Street, have we tried human breast milk? Just curious...:cool:

    Crazy. :p

    I think, for me, it's that it's too intimate. Another human female is just too close to me. Cows are so far removed from us that their milk is seen as just another product from them (so to speak).
    I don't, as an adult, want to consume anything that comes out of a human body.

    HA! No, Ra. I just think the human body is a beautiful thing and we spend too much time stigmatizing it. :)

    I see what you're saying...but it just doesn't evoke any sense of revolt from me. I dunno why. lol

    Now soy milk revolts me... soy is one scary bean. I won't touch that with a ten foot pole! lol I go for almond or rice milk. lol

    What's wrong with soy milk? I got me some coconut milk last time. Never had it before. I don't why I got it, I don't even like coconut. And I found out I don't like coconut milk either. I'll use it up with cereal but won't buy it again.
