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."

Date: 2008-09-24 06:45 am (UTC)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 ;)
