Those Poor Cows

Some may think that the PETA people are crazy, I think they're pretty funny!

That is seriously wrong. And if it's painful for the cows, just think of those poor Mama's. I had to put this on my own Blog, hope you don't mind. :)

That would certainly create a lot of jobs, particularly for unskilled women laborers, but then you would have to worry about the potential abuse of women in the "milking houses." I would worry about who's booby milk I was drinking. It sounds like PETA was evoking Jonathan Swift's Modest Proposal, but the press didn't pick up on the satire.

Interesting. But I think they made their point. It makes you stop and think about it. The B & J spokesperson said "...we believe a mother's milk is best used for her child," . Hmmm so what about cow's milk then? :)

I thought the Eww from some customers was also interesting. Why is it any moe "Ewww" than cows milk?

I wonder what the butter fat content of human breast milk is. Hmmmm I will ask your mother.

I did wonder just how much a woman would get paid for her milk. And I imagine the ice cream would be pretty gross. Not that I remember what human milk tastes like, but I've heard it's only appealing if you wear diapers and don't know how to talk.
