I just saw an interview with an american olympic athlete and he said his diet doesn't let him have icecream so he eats a breastmilk icecream called babygoogoo,
Im suprised they sell this but just goes to say breast is the best and breast is for the best

That's really cool!
I'm sure that will create a firestorm of controversy like everything else breastfeeding related.

There's a shop in London that was selling breastmilk ice cream last year - I know they were forced to close down for awhile, but I think they opened back up

Oh thatd make sence, breast milk is the norm there (i think) it is on most country not including america (wth) id try it with my own milk. One of us should find a resp. to make home made ice cream for our babes

I was watching something not long ago that there was actually a company trying to start up here in the US that was selling 'dairy' foods made with or out of breastmilk. Not sure if it made it or not

Wow I never really thought about this but it makes sense. Doesnt it make more sense for us to consume human milk instead of milk

Here's a recipe if anyone wants to try it out!

Step 1 Ingredients

Gather all of the needed ingredients. This is enough for one serving, but you may double or triple as you see fit, depending on how much breast milk you can pump out.

1/2 cup breast milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon sugar
4 cups crushed ice
4 tablespoons salt
1 standard sized coffee can
1 economy sized coffee can
Hand towel or gloves (to protect your hands)

Step 2 Making the Ice Cream

Combine the breast milk, vanilla and sugar into the standard sized coffee can and mix thoroughly. Tightly seal the can with its plastic lid and place inside the larger sized coffee can. Fill that can with the crushed ice, then sprinkle the salt over on top. Seal the can with its lid.

Now, use your gloves or towel to protect your hands as you roll the can back and forth on the ground, until the ice cream sets. The time required depends on the number of servings in the can.

Tips
The salt cause the ice to melt slightly, lowering its freezing point. Water freezes at 32 degrees F. water with 10% salt freezes at 20 degrees F.
You can use plastic ziplock freezer bags instead of coffee cans. Just combine the breast milk, vanilla and sugar in a 1-quart freezer bag, then putting that bag inside another 1-quart freezer bag to protect it from the salt. Now, put those bags inside a 1-gallon freezer bag, pour the ice and salt in, and use gloves to mix it around until set. About 8 minutes is needed to freeze one serving of the ice cream mixture.
