Baby Gaga - Breast milk icecream goes on sale in London's convent garden

According to a report on 24th Feb 2011- its official, breast milk is now on sale in London's popular convent garden for £15 an ounce!. Would you buy this icecream for yourself or your children?. Or even more interestingly would you contibute to Baby Gaga sales?. Some numbers of women have signed up to take take in it. 
Baby Gaga breatmilk icecrem how would you like it?

The most interesting thing about this is that, its a white man who is behind all this!. But then he is a father of breastfed children and understands.

So why the surprise?. Breast milk is personal nutrition for a mothers baby. Ths fact that there has been so much snares and even anger at women breastfeeding in public leaves me thinking hoe people will react to icecream. And if its good enough to eat in public then  mothers should also be able to feed their babies in public.

Judge for yourself - all you need to do is to breasftfeed in a public place to asses the negative reactions. But that's all besides the point.

I'd be interested in knowing the kind of health vetting these women have to undergo before their milk is acceped for public icecream consumption. How about the amount of time needed to express the milk?.

Post birth and hormones raging, physically and even emotionally a woman must have real time, energy and rest in order to produce sufficient quanties of milk for baby let alone baby Gaga.

How about the baby they are breastfeeding?. This is a full time consuming and demanding undertaking and there must be sufficient amounts of milk produced for the nursing ones own baby minus Baby Gaga!.

And with the name Baby Gaga what chance does a Black African woman like myself stand?. Not that I would be remotely interested to go down that route!.

Whether or not we condone breast milk icecream its here and its taking U.K with a storm,it looks like something that will expand to the U.S.A if it hasnt already. How about African women?.Whilst we are still getting used to those intrusive expressing machines some are further bearing extra intrusion all in the name of  Baby Gaga icecream!. Do we have time for Baby Gaga with all our issues?
