Hmm... I have a question that comes from my own place of lack of education: I have this sense that eating breast-milk ice-cream would constitute an act of fluid-bonding with the contributor(s). Is this correct? I believe from my brief reading on the topic, that HIV and HTLV-1 can be transmitted through breastmilk, and that breastfeeding is considered safe if the mother has Hep A, chicken-pox, lyme disease once the mother has received treatment, and Hep B once the mother and infant have received treatment. But I imagine anyone considering making or eating breast-milk ice-cream has done more research than I have on the topic. Is the pasteurization sufficient to change the picture? Or is this a non-sexual way to fluid-bond?
