PETA are being their usual pointless selves I see....

PETA Urges Ben & Jerry's To Use Human Milk

"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."

Why is anyone paying attention to Peta anymore? They are for lack of a better term "Crazy".

Yep that too. PETA gives real animal rights activisits a bad name and taste really bad too.

But they would probably object to the term since the bats might not want to give up their shit.

What an INCREDIBLY bad idea!
I've heard - from some really reliable sources (professionals in the field) that there's more need amongst children for human milk - as there's people who cannot give (for any number of reasons)...
... oh that's ... unethical. Very unethical.

mind you, that's ignoring that cows have been bred that they -need- to give milk or it's bad - from what I remember from dealing with cattle herders.

This is such an incredibly bad idea on so many levels.

mind - here I suspect y'all know far more than a sheltered farm dude like me ;)

They'd prefer the dairy cows to be slaughtered and eaten instead? People aren't going to just keep large herds of cows out of the goodness of their hearts if they stop milking them.

PETA is beyond crazy. Sometimes they're terrorists as well as being crazy.
