A new request from PETA was the topic of one KSPR Daily Download segment. The animal rights organization asked ice cream maker Ben & Jerry’s to use human breast milk instead of milk from cows in its ice cream. PETA argued human breast milk is healthier than the stuff coming out of cows. Ben & Jerry’s said it’s a novel idea, but they think a mother’s milk is best used for her child.
