OMG, The milk is wasted on cheese! It supose to be for babies!

Now the poor babies don’t have anything to drink!

I hope this will not motivate other mothers to do the same.

I saw this on a morning show in NY last week…. Eeeeeew! Just as nasty as those women who nurse their children until they’re 10… just not right.

Wilf, you may be on to a new family tradition: the birthday grilled mommy cheese sandwich! Cakes are so 20th century anyway.

Does it age well? Perhaps the mother could keep some for a couple of years and then say to her son or daughter ‘Look what mommy saved for your second birthday?’. I am on the disgusted side!

I’m not surprised that people who did taste the cheese weren’t so impressed. I wouldn’t imagine the woman who produced the milk was grass-fed…

I’m with Carmen, above — ick!! I need something, pronto, to get the image and the idea out of my head! And this is the second blog I’ve read this week covering the story, not to mention the original piece in the Times, and every time I come across it, I think, “ugh.” But to each his (or her) own. There’s a place in the world for every taste, I reckon. : )

I think a Riesling with a home schooled chicken might go well with lactato-cheese.

I guess those who want to try mammary cheese see themselves as daring and innovative..While the rest of us sit back and laugh or cringe.

I always make it a point to be kind no matter what comes out of the kitchen just for that reason! LOL! In this case people are actually knowingly ingesting this stuff! It brings to mind the scene in “BIG” with Tom Hanks when he tasted caviar – classic!

Having heard plenty of kitchen “war stories” over the years about people putting all kinds of things in the food of obnoxious patrons, one hopes fervently that breast milk is the only bodily fluid the chef is using in his food.

As an RN I can’t help but consider the infectious implications of breast milk use in this capacity without the regulatory restraints in place for it’s production. Are we that desperate for a “new” buzz-infused food group? So desperate that we forget the fact that breast milk is a human excretion through which any number of viruses and germs can be transmitted? Unless it was my own I wouldn’t touch it without gloves, nor would I ingest it for any reason.

Actually, if you get beyond the “ick” factor, an entire world of options opens up: think about “terroir,” eg where the mother lives, her “breed,” her diet, whether the morning milk is combined with the evening milk, whether it’s heated, natural “ferments” vs. industrial,pasteurized or not, salted or not, how it’s “affine-ed”(matured), all that and more before getting to wine options — though some might vote for St. Amour or, depending on religious outlook, Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio.
