Got milk? (ewwwwww… creepy!) [update]

.

Got milk? A Swiss restaurant owner wants to know, and will pay women just over £3 (about US$5.50 or AUS$6.60) for 14 ounces of their breast milk to include as an ingredient in meals he serves at his restaurant.

Swiss restaurant to serve meals cooked with human breast milk

The owner of the Storchen restaurant in the exclusive Winterthur resort will improve his menu with local specialities such as meat stew and various soups and sauces containing at least 75 per cent of mother’s milk.

“We have all been raised on it. Why should we not include it into our diet?” Hans Locher, who has become Switzerland most controversial restaurant owner, said.

Mr Locher attracted the attention of the leading media of the German-speaking world this week after he posted ads looking for women donors, who will receive just over three pounds for 14 ounces of their milk.

He said: “I first experimented with breast milk when my daughter was born.

“One can cook really delicious things with it. However, it always needs to be mixed with a bit of whipped cream, in order to keep the consistency.”

Hey Ash?  Julien’s Swiss, ain’t he?   Just askin’, is all.

UPDATE: Bingbing in comments raises an interesting point.   As pointed out last year by Andrew Bolt, Heather Mills says that to eliminate the greenhouse gases emitted by cow burps & farts, “There are many other kinds of milk available. Why don’t we try drinking rats’ milk and dogs’ milk?” So which milk would make the more Environmentally Correct latte here?

UPDATE II (Beef): The PETAnut Gallery gets the craving!

“VERMONT — People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals sent a letter to Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, cofounders of Ben & Jerry’s Homemade Inc., urging them to replace cow’s milk they use in their ice cream products with human breast milk, according to a statement recently released by a PETA spokeswoman.

“PETA’s request comes in the wake of news reports that a Swiss restaurant owner will begin purchasing breast milk from nursing mothers and substituting breast milk for 75 percent of the cow’s milk in the food he serves,” the statement says.

PETA officials say a move to human breast milk would lessen the suffering of dairy cows and their babies on factory farms and benefit human health.”
