London shop to make breast milk ice cream

**SMOKEU** · 26th February 2011, 23:28

"A specialist ice cream parlour 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 tonight (NZ time) 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 (NZ$30) 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 realised 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 flavours 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."

One place I used to work at one of the guys used to bring a tub of his wife's milk in to put in his tea. Weird enough that nobody stole it out of the fridge, but it was fine in my coffee. Odd though, you think nothing of drinking something that came out of a cows udder after if has eaten grass and shit all day long, but every one is shocked at the thought of drinking human milk. Surely it has to be better for us ?

Now there's an idea for all the women on DPB.

Not suprised when you see the cost of milk...

It's too sweet. It wrecks the taste of tea and coffee.

I'm pretty sure that is what the chef calls his 'special' salad dressing after you have sent your meal back stating he'd stuffed it up ...........

Titilating flavour, with a touch of bossum after taste... over all it gives the nipple effect and well you do have to be careful shaking as the bouncing effect can be well be mesmerizing especially if they are 2 abreast.
