Breast Milk Ice Cream

Sorry, that is just creepy. I admit to having tasted my sister's, because I'm just such a foodie, innit?

But I read this story on Metro yesterday and it just did not tempt me at all. Kind of gross. What do you think?

I guess the publicity stunt has worked, because I kind of want to go check out the shop, it looks like kind of a badass ice cream thing.

I will not, however, be sampling the breast milk ice cream, thank you very much (especially not at £15 a scoop!).

Here is the link to the story, and their website

Quite the world citizen, Monique Vanni is an international environmental consultant, with a diplomatic background. She's also a PHD candidate at LSE's Department of Social Policy, an ashtanga yoga practitioner and likes the odd life drawing class.

She's chosen London because it is truly a cosmopolitan experience, and each bus ride feels like a Benetton comercial.

Monique has been in London for over three years, and is always peeling away at new layers of this big onion of a metropolis. While she considers herself a big contemporary art enthusiast, her greatest passion is food.

She loves to buy it, cook it, eat it, and talk about it.... Her London is a bit off the beaten track: a bit scruffy, but glamorous nonetheless. Like Brigitte Bardot after a rough night.
