NYU art student serves up breast milk cheese for show
The Lady Cheese Shop is a temporary art installation by Miriam Simun, a graduate student at New York University who hopes to use the craft of cheese-making to raise questions about the ethics of modern biotechnologies.
'Cheese is the conversation starter,' Ms Simun said. 'Some people are loving it, and some people are gagging.'

Simun found three nursing women willing to have their milk turned into cheese. She screened the milk for diseases, pasteurized it and learned the basics of cheese-making.
Midtown Smoke was described as 'creamy and just pure heaven' while Wisconsin Chew apparently reflects the vegetable-filled diet of the woman who provided its milk.

1. I don't care what's in it, "Wisconsin Chew" is not an appealing name
