PETA is asking Ben and Jerrys to use breast milk as a substitute for the dairy in their ice cream, one of many crazy publicity stunts by the animal rights activists.
Tracy Reiman, PETA's executive vice president, sent a letter to Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield regarding the human dairy campaign today.
"The fact that human adults consume huge quantities of dairy products made from milk that was meant for a baby cow just doesn't make sense," Tracy Reiman said. "Everyone knows that 'the breast is best,' so Ben & Jerry's could do consumers and cows a big favor by making the switch to breast milk."
Ben and Jerry's answered with, "We applaud PETA's novel approach to bringing attention to an issue, but we believe a mother's milk is best used for her child."
