#2 The thing is that human milk can carry human diseases. Were ALL of these women tested for HIV? HIV is transmitted by breast milk. So are many other diseases such as tuberculosis, human T-cell lymphotropic virus, and many other diseases.

I wouldn't eat human milk from a woman I didn't know. You shouldn't either. It could actually kill you.

#3 I guess if they pasteurized it, it would kill that stuff, but still, human milk from strangers is not a good idea.

#4 When I saw the headline, I knew this picture would be there.

Were ALL of these women tested for HIV?

According to a different article I saw, the milk received the same screening as donated blood.

#5 Now that the demand has been created, expect poor mothers babies to go hungry while mom sells milk for lottery money.

#6 A southern friend once invited me to an ice cream store solely to demonstrate his southern dialect. He did so by ordering a two scoop ice cream cone.

"Ah would lahk a pee-can ripple, an' a budderpecawn."

"You see?", he said, "The accent is awn the fust syllable."

#9 Sorry, I agree with the moderator/poster, file it under "Depths of Depravity,"; which could top "short attention span theater" any day of the week.

Victoria Hiley, 35, from London was one of 15 women who donated milk to the restaurant after seeing the advert

The picture below is Victoria Hiley.

#10 Is there a line to slap that Hiley chick? Because I want to queue up. (There's a word in playgroup land for broads like her. Sanctimommy. I'm sure the 'burg can figure out what it means. It's not a compliment.)

Look, princess, we all know about the benefits. We get that shoved down our throats at every opportunity from the first prenatal appointment. If she really wanted to help women with breastfeeding problems, she would be donating it to a NICU (or whatever the equivalent is in England) instead of turning it into a dessert.

#12 Agree Frank. Eating it with a spoon just doesn't have the same 'feel'.
