Is it possible to make cheese from human breast milk?
Yes, its only milk after all. I did wonder if I could make yoghurt out of it once for my baby when I started to wean her, but did not think about cheese. Apres Vous – I know you were kidding, but actually (unlike cows) you do not need to keep impregnating humans in order to stop them from ‘drying up’ we can keep going for as many years as necessary, drying up is actually a fallacy, with human breasts it is supply and demand, as long as the demand is there, they will keep supplying, you don’t make a prescribed amount or have to wait for them to ‘fill’, if the baby (or pump) ask for it it comes. Our milk only dries up once the baby stops demanding it – so yes that awful ‘bitty’ sketch on Little Britain would actually be physically possibly. In the UK we are a lot more open about these things than in the USA, attitudes over there really seem to be rather squeamish about breast milk and breastfeeding.
