PETA Acting Even More Weird; Calls for Breast Milk in Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals suggests world-famous Ben & Jerry’s Homemade Ice Cream should tap nursing moms, rather than cows, for the milk used in its ice cream.
PETA said that if the ice cream maker begins using breast milk in its products instead of cow’s milk, it would reduce the suffering of cows and calves and give ice cream lovers a healthier product.
Ben & Jerry’s officials said in so many words “You’re friggin’ crazy.”

I suppose that if there goal is to attract attention to themselves then stunts like these work, but they only make PETA seem even more of a fringe lunatic group to the rest of the world. I think that they’d be better off focusing on some of the more despicable practices then trying to get people to give up ice cream.
