Yes it is fine to drink. Many people use it for cooking with. I actually used it in a desert once because I ran out of regular milk. Tasted fine no different then normal. My husband liked it, he did say the taste would change with whatever I ate but not by much. I think he's looking forward to that again!

I guess I could, but probably wouldn't llike it. I'm sure, however, that if it's good for a baby, it wouldn't hurt an adult. I don't know who wrote it, but I read this very old true story. A young man was in prison for life. He was fed very little. His mother had a new baby. The mother would visit her son once a day at the prison. She fed him breast milk for many years which kept him healthy. This went on until somehow they got caught. I don't recall the unhappy ending, but it shows that breast milk is o.k. I think mostly it's just the idea.

Of course you can. Human breastmilk is designed for the human body. Cows milk is designed for cows even though we drink it. It wouldn't taste like the milk you're used to though. It supposedly tastes like sugar water

Absolutely, and it has nutrition for anyone at any age, so lets say you're a guy and you have a wife and you are starving, looks like you get breast milk for dinner, yum ;)

Yes, it's edible and in liquid form, unless it goes sour and turns into cottage cheese. Then you'd have to chew it.
