Though the art of the soda fountain and the appeal of being a soda jerk began slowly fading to the background as fast food restaurants came on the scene, our friends at PETA may be helping to bring some of the appeal back.  If their appeal to ice cream moguls Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield (uhhh... Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream) is heard, we could be sitting in our sweats, watching chic-flicks, and healing broken hearts with a tub of Rocky Road made from 100% pure Human Breast Milk.

Yesterday PETA wrote a letter to the head honchos at Ben and Jerry's urging them to make the switch from utters to boobs as their primary milk source.  The letter reasoned that they should consider the move because of the link between dairy and obesity (because you know that pound of sugar in the ice cream isn't what's doing it), and an increased quality of life for cows (because, you know harvesting human milk is clearly more ethical).  All I have to say is, for the love of all that is St. Louis ice cream; they had best stay away from Ted Drewes. 

Before you continue reading please set down your coffee, please dispose of all Swiss chocolates, and make sure you have your travel agent's number within close reach in the event you may be planning a trip to Switzerland.  PETA's idea came from the Storchen restaurant in Switzerland - the food on Storchen's new menu uses 75% Human Breast Milk.  Excuse me... I have to go; I just threw up in my mouth a little.
