PETA Tortures Tits
Friday September 26th, 2008 in current affairs, current events | 1 Comment »

Earlier this week PETA released an announcement that they would be encouraging Ben & Jerry’s to use HUMAN breast milk instead of cow milk for the production of their ice cream. This idea was motivated by a Swiss restaurateur who decided to use at least 75% human breast milk in his dishes. PETA argues that cow milk is meant for baby cows, and human breast milk is for human babies. Furthermore, they cite research that states that human consumption of cow milk can lead to adverse health effects.
While I do have my reservations about pushing milk consumption on humans after they’re all grown up, I have my extreme doubts about serving human breast milk. Will it be pasteurized? How will they ensure it’s safety? I imagine some sort of stockyard full of lactating women, that’s not very ethical, is it? I’m pretty certain that this is just an absurd publicity stunt. If so, ya got me PETA. I don’t disagree with everything they tout, I think they do a lot of great work. But surely there’s some fur they can go hunt down or they can spend time combating actual animal torture, like how race horses are made to piss so damn much.
