* o principal argumento foi o risco à saúde, uma vez que consumir fluídos de uma outra pessoa poderia transmitir doenças como a hepatite. o proprietário da sorveteria acha que a reação foi exagerada, pois os consumidores provaram e aprovaram; e o material utilizado teria sido previamente testado. mas enquanto testes são feitos o produto não será vendido. *

An ice cream parlour in London has been forced to stop selling its "Baby Gaga" flavour, which is made with human breast milk.

11:46PM GMT 01 Mar 2011

Matt O'Connor, the founder and owner of The Icecreamists, where the frozen delicacy was sold, said the ice cream proved to be popular with the customers.

However, Westminster Council officials took away samples for testing and later sent a letter to Mr O'Connor ordering him to stop selling the dish.

Westminster Councillor Brian Connell said: "Following two complaints from members of the public and concerns from the Health Protection Agency and Food Standards Agency, Westminster Council officers visited the premises on Friday (February 25) and removed all ice cream being sold as containing breast milk.

"The business owner has agreed to stop producing and selling the ice cream while it is tested. Selling foodstuffs made from another person's bodily fluids can lead to viruses being passed on and in this case, potentially hepatitis. As the local authority we will support small businesses and applaud innovative ideas wherever possible, but we must protect the health of consumers."

But Mr O'Connor insists the ban is an overreaction, claiming the key novelty ingredient was screened and tested before being used.
