People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) yesterday
sent a letter to Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield of Ben ‘n Jerry’s Ice Cream
fame, asking them to replace the cow’s milk they currently use with human
breast milk.
The letter
brings to Cohen and Greenfield’s attention the Swiss restaurant, Storchen,
which is about to introduce new menu items – including soups, stews and sauces
– that are made up of at least 75 percent human breast milk. “If Ben and Jerry's
replaced the cow's milk in its ice cream with breast milk,” the letter says,
“your customers - and cows - would reap the benefits.”
While I don’t doubt that this moove (sorry) would make some
cows very happy, the idea of a dessert made with human breast milk gives me the
willies.
That said, there are some interesting naming possibilities
for a potentially booberific line of ice creams, including but not limited to:
- Raspberry Nipple Ripple
- Strawb-areola
- Chubby Juggy
- Boob-erry
- Peach Suckle Buckle
- Oreo Crush Thrush
- Bouncing Apple Betty
- Dulce de Leche League
Any other ideas?
