Cows vs. People: Which milk is better for use?

According to CNN.com, PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) sent a letter to popular ice cream company Ben & Jerry's. The letter, which was based off of a concept first publicized by a chef in Switzerland, suggested replacing the milk and other dairy products usually obtained from cows with human breast milk. The donors would be paid for the milk they gave to the company for use, and PETA Vice President Tracy Reiman states in the letter that "Using cow's milk for your ice cream is a hazard to your customer's health." and that "Dairy products have been linked to juvenile diabetes, allergies, constipation, obesity, and prostate and ovarian cancer." A Ben & Jerry's spokesperson replied, "We applaud PETA's novel approach to bringing attention to an issue, but we believe a mother's milk is best used for her child,". Comments and discussion are welcomed.
