Last Friday you could have stopped by London's premiere ice cream parlor, The Icecreamists, for a taste of creamy breast milk ice cream. Aptly named "Baby Gaga," the ice cream incorporated milk from local donors and came in flavors like Madagascar vanilla and citrus fusions.
Friday was the first day it went public and the shop sold roughly 9 lbs. of the stuff, wiping them clean of the mama-made treat.
"The response was fabulously historic," says shop founder Matt O'Connor in an exclusive Urlesque interview. He noted that women and mothers, in particular, were especially eager to try The Icecreamists' new menu listing.
Despite its "slightly thinner and sweeter taste," the shop's breast-pumping good time was short lived. In fact, it caused a double D-sized frenzy. After receiving several complaints from customers who were offended at the thought of consuming "bodily fluids," local officials stormed into the shop the following Monday to confiscate the goods.
"They treated the ice cream as if it were nuclear waste or hazardous materials -- weapons of mass seduction," remarks O'Connor, who adds that their product is safer than tobacco, alcohol and even antibiotic-infused cow's milk.
The breast milk confection is now under scrutiny by London's local council and approval for future sale remains pending.
"We've had thousands of years where humanity was weaned on mother's milk and it's never been considered unsafe," he says. "People are just uncomfortable because it comes from a woman's breast."
Though we can't promise the Baby Gaga breast milk ice cream will be there if you visit, you can try one of the shop's other weird concept ice creams if you're ever in the London area. Notable menu selections include the Sex Bomb and Molotoffee Cocktail, detailed below.
Sex Bomb
"The one ice cream authorities can't diffuse. Benefiting from a weapons upgrade in 2011, this classic Fior di Latte ice cream is blended with natural stimulants (Ginko Bilabo, Arginine, Guarana) and other secret ingredients for blood flow and energy. Scented with a gentle infusion of citrus zest. Topped with a shot of burning La Fee Absinthe administered from a hospital IV drip, for explosive results. Strictly limited to one ice cream per customer."
Molotoffee Cocktail
"Rediscover your revolutionary zeal with this inflammatory mix of chilled Crème De Banane Liqueur topped with Dulce De Leche ice cream, toffee all insulated under a pillow of soft meringue. Blow-torched at your table and flamed with an atomised spritzer of overproof rum. A boozy banoffee baked Alaska that's fluffy on the outside but dangerous on the inside. Growls seductively like a mama grizzly with a natural gas pipeline between her legs."
Prices run about 4 GPB, or $6.50. To learn more, visit The Icecreamist's blog or website. You can also stay up to date with their shenanigans and the breast milk fiasco via Facebook and Twitter.

I see their point in seizing it--with milk from so many donors there could be a chance of illness. Some STDs can be transmitted through breast milk and we don't even know if there was screening. Anybody know if it was pasteurized? I DO think that he is incorrect in stating that it's just because it comes from a woman's breast. There are plenty of other reasons to not be supportive, thank you very much.

Yuck! Nature made breast milk for one purpose only, to nourish infants. Not to provided jaded grown-ups with a decadent confection. The authorities were right to confiscate it.
I hope this is one novelty that won't catch on!

You think this is weird but cow's milk is normal? Cow milk is just breast milk...from a cow. If anything, humans consuming human breast milk is MORE acceptable.

Would I want any? No. Would I stop others from having it if they wanted? No. People need to mind their own bloody business.
