Woman Uses Breast Milk To Make Her Own Butter

We're not sure we'd be trying this one...

A woman has revealed her method of making butter out of her own breast milk, and has even shared the images online.

Reddit user WhatMichelleDoes spent an hour shaking breast milk she had pumped from herself until tiny beads of butter began to form. Of course being curious about the taste, Michelle admitted to eating some of the homemade food straight.

Questioned by another user about how it tasted, Michelle wrote:

“It was the sweetest, creamiest butter I have ever tasted.”

Michelle even gave a step-by-step guide on her account of how she created her butter concoction:

First Michelle squeezed her breast milk into a yellow cup:

She then moved it to a larger container and placed a lid on top. She began to shake it.

Eventually, something solid began to appear. Forty minutes of shaking later, she noticed tiny balls begin to form. She placed this onto the lid of a container.

Since posting the images, Michelle has vowed to try again with more breast milk to create more butter.

We’re not sure we’d be as quick to sample a taste…
