The poster on the bfing board thought it was gross. I disagree. So I ask you, would you eat something made from another woman's breastmilk?

    i am 10000% pro BFing and support the idea that everyone can do whatever they want for themselves. however....i think that sounds super gross--i don't want to eat anyones BM, including my own.

    I guess what strikes me is that we eat things from random cows all the time with no problems. I don't know why human milk would be different.

    DH won't even drink my breastmilk. I have. I don't guzzle it (I save that for DS) but I have tasted it.

    It probably wouldn't be my food of choice but I wouldn't be weirded out by it.

    I have tasted mine, but I would not drink it.  And I would NOT drink someone else's.

    Gross. I've tasted my own breastmilk (and admittedly it was pretty good-very sweet) but to make it into cheese? Gross. To eat someone else's? Gross. To eat someone else's made into cheese? Gross!

    We also EAT random cows, but we don't eat people.

    I am very pro BFing, but that weirds me out. I tasted my own a couple times to make sure it was okay, but I've never taken an actual sip, nor do I think I could eat cheese that was made, even from my own breastmilk.

    That's just ME though. There are a lot of foods I thinka re gross that other people eat happily, and I'm just fine with that, so I wouldn't judge or anything.

    Well, I wasn't advocating cannibalism! I just think milk is milk.

    I'm wondering if the milk was pasteurized LOL... that might make a difference.

    I don't think it's gross necessarily but I don't understand why you'd want BM cheese. Just seems strange to me. I just think BM is for babies.

    Oh and I totally argree that it's kinda weird to drink milk from random cows. I'm a dairy whore so I would never give it up but I can see someone's point when they think it's gross.

    Nope, nor would I eat something made with my own breastmilk. However, I wouldn't be opposed to serving breastmilk cheese to Moses, if I made it with my own milk.

    No, in fact my sis says that when she has a baby they will make some out of theirs. Not for public consumption, just for personal use.

    Then I started EBFing and thought...yeah, you "waste" some of that precious liquid gold to make cheese. Don't think so.

    Um, yeah. The Bump be too crazy for pics of my kid.

    I think what is weird about is that a cow has no cognitive awareness that you are drinking it's milk. However, you COULD potentially run into some woman on the street who donated her breast milk and have a whole conversation with her about how good her breast milk cheese was at dinner last night. And THAT is what is weird about it to me.
