PETA Busts Ben And Jerry For Not Using Human Breast Milk

Keeping you abreast of the news: back in June 2006, Rob reported on a human breast milk bar in Canada, Spartacus honored us with a report on a restaurant serving human breast milk, now PETA wants to go whole hog (as it were!).

VERMONT — People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals sent a letter to Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, cofounders of Ben & Jerry’s Homemade Inc., urging them to replace cow’s milk they use in their ice cream products with human breast milk,

From PETA’s letter:

Like all mammals, cows only produce milk during and after pregnancy, so to be able to constantly milk them, cows are forcefully impregnated every nine months. After several years of living in filthy conditions and being forced to produce 10 times more milk than they would naturally, their exhausted bodies are turned into hamburgers or ground up for soup.

Hear that ladies? If cows are “forcefully impregnated every nine months” and “forced to produce 10 times more milk than they would naturally”, how does PETA propose that you to take up the slack? I’m not sure how much cow’s milk Ben and Jerry’s uses in a year, but I’m sure it’s a lot!
Does it strike you odd as it does me, that the good liberals at PETA are seeking to exploit the women of the world? That after decades of struggle not to be treated as cattle, the good people of PETA want to treat them as cows?
Feminists have long advocated that women reach their full potential and work out side the home and express themselves! Well, technically, the barn is outside the home! And you ladies are going to have to express a lot to keep up with demand!
Could put a whole new meaning to the phrase: Working Girl!
