Get human cheese in NYC!

As always, I can't help but see this as a double standard. I mean, I'm quite sure the first person to make cheese from cow's milk was looked at with disbelief, too. You're putting reproductive (practically sexual) juices from an animal into food? Ewww! :)

My favourite line was this: 'But NYC health officials are trying to put the squeeze on Mason saying that the prime ingredient is "not intended for adults or wide public consumption".'

Fortunately, cows' milk is apparently "intended for adults" -- I have no idea who made that decision. I mean, at least human milk is intended for HUMANS. :)

Agreed.  That is a pretty ridiculous double-standard.

I'm fine with it, though.  Bring on the human cheese.  Maybe it's good on tacos.

mmmm...tacos.  I'm HOONGGRRAAAy.

He's probably lying to get publicity and sales.

Very possible, but that doesn't change the moral question and people's reaction to it.

I agree.  But there are some health concerns associated with drinking human milk, which wouldn't be an issue with cow's milk.  There are also a lot more unknowns.  

And even though there is a double standard, I think 'grossness' in itself is a pretty weak reason not to do something.  Health, taste, and so on, are a lot more convincing.

I think curiosity would drive me to taste test human cheese. Depends on what kinds of cheese they make with it though. Human feta cheese sounds fucking disgusting, but I might go for some human mozzarella sprinkled over the top of my favorite pizza. Though, substituting the lard in the dough with discarded liposuction human fat would be taking things too far.

Can you elaborate? It seems to me that if the milk was pasteurized and everything the same way as cow's milk, it'd be the same from a health perspective.

I'd hazard to guess the amount of general crap humans eat would be worse the second time around.

Not that I'm implying his wife eats a lot of junk food.. :P
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

Most cows are fed the crap that is too crappy for people to eat. Not to mention chemicals/steroids up the wazoo (literally and figuratively :) )

If I ever happen to find a woman that will put up with me, marry her, and knock her up, and she's kinky enough to let me, I'd suck her lactating teat.  No lie.
I tend to edit my topics and replies frequently.

I'm sure most men would. The real question is, would you milk her teat and then curdle the milk?
