A London ice-cream parlor called Icecreamists is making a splash with a special ice cream made from breast milk.
The flavor, dubbed "Baby Gaga," is made from the breast milk of a mother from nearby Leeds, Madagascan vanilla pods and lemon zest, according to the International Business Times.
The eatery pays 15 pounds ($24) for every 10 ounces of milk. At least 15 mothers have volunteered to donate their breast milk.
While the London ice-cream parlor owners are convinced they have a hit on their hands, here in the states, the reaction to breast milk food products has been lukewarm at best.
Miriam Simun, a New York designer interested in sustainable food systems and the human body, faced a lot of questions and disgust when she debuted a breast milk cheese, she called Human Cheese.
