I love Ben and Jerry’s.In my opinion it is the best ice cream in the world. Some of my favorites include Cheesecake Brownie, Chunky Monkey, Cinnamon buns and Mint Chocolate Chunk. Ben and Jerry’s is an all American ice cream company. On May 5, 1978 Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield opened their first ice cream parlor in Burlington,Vermont. And in 1983, Ben & Jerry used their ice cream to make a 27,102 pound ice cream sundae, that in it’s self is amazing, but even more so is the idea of eating that beast. In 2005 on Earth day,when the U.S Senate proposed opening of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil drilling,Ben and Jerry put a 900 pound Baked Alaska on the front steps of the U.S Capital Building. Ben and Jerry have been using their world Awesome ice cream to help people all over the world. Not only have Ben and Jerry turned Ben and Jerry’s into the remarkable company that it is,but they have created a group of loyalist fans who will indulge into a carton of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream knowing that satisfaction is only one spoonful of deliciousness away.
Frozen breast milk is breast milk that is expressed or pumped and then put in safe bottles or bags and frozen.
Traditional Use for Frozen Breast Milk
Traditionally frozen breast milk is used by breastfeeding mothers to feed their newborn babies or small infants on days when they are away from the child. Some mothers have been able to plan ahead and return to work and still give their babies breast milk. They store up extra from their intial post-natal time off work and then when they return to work the baby sitter can use the milk in the freezer, during the day at work the mother takes her breaks to use a breast pump to collect additional breast milk for future use. Having frozen breast milk can also be handy for a long trip especially if you are flying or using public transportation and you are very conscious about breast feeding in public.
Creative Uses for Frozen Breast Milk
Several reknowned chefs have recently decided to take a creative look at uses for frozen breast milk. The first one I had heard of was a chef in New York City whose wife had several gallons of breast milk in bags in the freezer with the dates they had been collected. It was collecting faster than their child could drink it so he decided to use frozen breast milk creatively. He developed several cheeses that he served at dinner party for their family. He thought that for safety reasons he would not be able to serve the selection of hard cheeses and soft cheeses made from frozen breast milk in his restaurant. Today I heard that a restaurant in London is selling frozen breast milk ice cream. There are several flavors and options for those who are brave enough to try it. I am not sure it will be more than a short lived fad, but who knows we may find that there are some health values to frozen breast milk and it could be a whole new commercial venture.
