    No, I’d be worried about viruses. With common animal milks, I know there’s almost zero chance any viruses present in the milk are capable of infecting a human. Obviously that isn’t the case with human milk.

    Strongly depends on how it’s sourced. Would definitely give it a try if it’s excess from a milk bank that’s about to expire or if it comes from cultured human breast tissue in a lab. Would not try if it its from some random person or otherwise unclear origin though.

    Also wouldn’t make a habit of it, there’s probably infants who would benefit from me not making it more scarce and expensive than it could be.

    It would make more sense than consuming animal milk and could be a good revenue source for mothers

    Yes. I don’t like supporting supermarkets but this would make buying it so much easier that I’d make an exception.
