Breast Milk Ice Cream, Anyone? This Particular Flavour Is Selling Like A Hot Cake
Last Updated:
A Brooklyn company has introduced a unique limited edition Breast Milk ice cream, generating curiosity among locals outside its outlets in New York.
A unique breast milk-flavoured ice-cream launched by a Brooklyn company has raised curiosity among New York residents. Located in Brooklyn's Dumbo neighbourhood, the OddFellows Ice Cream Co. introduced a limited edition 'Breast Milk" ice cream.
Since the announcement, the product created intrigue among locals gathering in large numbers to try it outside the company's outlet on Water Street.
Is It Really Breast Milk-based?
According to a New York Post report, however, the flavour is not made from actual human milk. But it contains liposomal bovine colostrum, which is a dietary supplement normally found in breast milk. With the introduction of the unique flavour at its outlets, OddFellows Ice Cream Co has tried to give the dessert a familiar and yet surprising profile for the locals, who have had their eyes rolled since the option was launched on the menu.
The report also mentioned that the breast milk-flavoured ice cream is part of OddFellows Ice Cream Co's collaboration with a parenting product company called Frida. To keep the interest fresh, the company is only offering 50 free scoops daily to a crowd of curious New Yorkers outside its outlets.
'I was breastfed by my mother from 1974 to about 1978 and a half, but I certainly do not remember that, so it still emotionally and mentally surprised me," said Charlene Rymsha of Mammoth Lake, California, as quoted by the NY Post. Rymsha stumbled upon the ice cream as she visited the shop by chance on her way to catch the Rockaway Beach ferry.
Her friend Dale Kaplan, though, wasn't as amused and felt there was nothing special about the breast milk-flavoured scoop she tasted. 'Isn't all ice cream breast milk? Doesn't all ice cream come from the udders of a cow? It just seems like it's a different word for ice cream. Because ice cream must be breast milk. Am I wrong about that?" Kaplan asked. Another customer, Dale W of Brooklyn, had a different issue with the ice cream. 'I expected it to taste more milky, like a more intense milk flavour. And this is not it," Dale explained after having walked more than a mile to taste the bizarre dessert.
