I haven't used breastmilk in cooking, but I did use formula to make macaroni and cheese once when I ran out of milk.
its really no grosser than milk coming from a cow I suspose,but I wouldnt drink other womens milk yuck,but if it was mine mabey if I was in a pinch,then again I dont bottle feed anyways so I dont have to worry about it:)
i have a brother in law who nurses off his wife.... uumm.... well you get the rest.
ps i have tasted it (mine not hers LOL) and it is vary sweet.
I think it's funny a lot of women say, "Eww" to breastmilk. So, it's good enough for your baby, but it's not good enough for you? I won't give my kids anything I wouldn't eat or drink myself.
That is just not right it's only for your baby but I do mix it in baby cereal for my baby.
I know its human milk,but would like it if someone made gravy with their own saliva? I think most people like to be displaced from their food (if that makes sense).
i breastfeed my babyson but never tried it for myself n ma dh says he'll never try it , he also said ewwww no lol
i put in mixed with some soymilk and nequik if i'm feeling a little bit sick..all the immunities make my sickness go away in snap
I have tasted it but not drank it.
Some of my children's meals have been prepared with breastmilk if any of them were feeling under the weather and needed the extra nutrition, OR we were out of milk. Human milk for human children!
