> To me too. When I was attempting breastfeeding I couldn’t produce enough milk for my extremely hungry baby, let alone having gallons of the stuff to play with. I think breast milk is too precious a commodity to be making into cheese (unless the cheese is then used to feed the child I guess…) but it could be too that the baby was weaned or on other supplements for whatever reason, so Mom had excess.

If I saw such a thing on a menu I wouldn’t reason it out as far as you have. I’d only get as far as “why isn’t the baby getting the breast milk?” I did read the link and it says they have stored plenty for the baby but the idea still seems vaguely wrong to me. Not sure I could even verbalize why.

Madge, this cheesecake is divine. You must give me the recipe!

You’ll need a springform pan and a breast pump.
