Breastmilk Ice Cream: Would you consider it? Too taboo?

There has been much controversy lately over Baby GaGa, aka Breastmilk Ice Cream.  One London shop can't keep it in stock.  There are many interesting cases both for and against this.

Some say they'd definitely serve it to their kids or toddler but they personally wouldn't eat it.  Others suggest it's unsanitary, can pass diseases and is downright gross.  What are your thoughts on this topic?  Should there be such a thing?  Would you try some?

Personally, if I were still breastfeeding I would certainly attempt to make some on my own.  Purchasing it would be another story completely.  I think I'd have to do a lot of research on the production, their donors, etc. before I'd consider it.

However, we drink cows milk and goats milk and eat all sorts of other dairy so why should this be considered so taboo?  What do you think?

Luvaboos Cloth Diaper Trial Program is so easy you won't believe it!

"We are excited to be offering this service to parents. When we decided to switch to cloth with our second child we found it completely overwhelming. There are many options to choose from and the financial investment can seem daunting when you are not even sure what you will end up liking! So I just bit my lower lip and ordered a handful of diapers to start testing out.  Overall they all functioned fine but I definitely fell in love with some and others didn't mind washing a little sooner so they'd miss their turn!"

What has your family done to go GREEN?

I can admit, I wasn't a particularly "green" person before beginning to use cloth diapers.  We recycled from time to time but not regularly.  I wouldn't say we were especially wasteful but we just didn't give a whole lot of thought to it.  I often considered doing "green" things to be something we just couldn't afford.  Solar panels...not in our budget.  Hybrid vehicle...too expensive.  Growing our own food...too much work.

None the less, once we switched to cloth diapers and realized that they were not anywhere as inconvenient as we had once thought, we began to reevaluate some of the other things we had once thought were too much work or too expensive to do.

We ordered our recycling bins and began to recycle, one thing led to another and before we knew it we were recycling way more than we were throwing away.  In fact, some garbage days we didn't even have enough to put out.

While growing our own veggies is on the list of things to accomplish still, I did get into Butterfly gardening which led to an interest in composting, yet another way to make the most of your waste and reduce the amount that you throw away.

I've always enjoyed repurposing old or used items, thrift store shopping and yard saling, so those things we already did. Unless something is completely wrecked or broken do I throw it away, for the most part I think everything could be used by someone for something, and so I tend to hold on to things until I find the right person to give them away to.

An electric or hybrid car and solar panels still seem pretty unreachable but are definitely something we'd consider in the future.

Next on the list is switching to unpaper towels and family cloth, at least part time.

So what green things do you and your family do?  What's on your list of ways to go greener?  Did cloth diapering lead to your interest in more eco friendly practices?  We'd love to read your comments.
