10. London Parlor Offers Breast Milk Ice Cream

London ice-cream parlor has started serving breast milk ice cream called Baby Gaga, reports the Guardian. The delicacy, which retails at $20 per scoop, is made by infusing breast milk from human donors with Madagascan vanilla pods and lemon zest. No Ben and Jerry's-style excess here, say the shop's owners—they just want the natural flavor to shine through. "The response has been amazing," said Icecreamists owner Matt O'Connor, who notes the shop sold out of their first batch. O'Connor currently taps his supplies from 15 willing donors, who are paid $50 per pint. A further 35 have signed up to be milked, though they must go through a health screening first. One food critic described it as a "regular vanilla ice-cream" with a "goatish" aftertaste. Some people find the idea repellant, says O'Connor, though it's unclear why drinking from another species' breast is any less so. "People at first say it's disgusting because it's a bodily fluid, but so is cow's milk," he said.

Hey, why buy the cow when you can get the breast milk ice cream for free?
:D:D

(sorry, couldn't help myself...)
 
I'm actually not repulsed by the idea at all, but the price would certainly keep me from buying it.
