Boob of the Week

Biggest Boob Goes to PETA

They want Ben & Jerry's to use HUMAN breast milk in our ice cream!

-Julie Ryan Evans

There's no way that Boob of the Week can go to anyone other than the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) this week. They are urging Ben & Jerry's, the makers of ice cream that makes us melt, to forgo cow's milk in their ice cream and replace it instead with HUMAN BREAST MILK! We're all for animal rights and know plenty of very nice vegans, but c'mon.

I'm sorry, but no way am I going to eat Cherry Garcia knowing that some mother has lactated in it. Go breastfeeding - I intend to do just that in about three and a half months - but this is just ... gross (sorry for the lack of eloquence here, but really, can you think of anything that better describes it?). And as our wise managing editor, April, asked, "Why is it OK to milk women and not cows?" Seriously, why?!

PETA got the idea from a Swiss restaurant that uses breast milk in its dishes (Makes me think of Swiss cheese in a whole other light). So that restaurateur can share in the Boob award too! read more about the Biggest Boob...
