from the comments:
There are places where human milk is consumed by more than just infants. In most countries of the world, the average age of weaning is between the ages of two and seven. In Mongolia, adults drink breast milk. It's considered a treat. Human breast milk is a perfectly healthy and nutritious food for a human being at any age to consume.
Breast milk is not the same as human flesh, and should never be compared to cannibalism. It is the only food in the universe specifically designed for human consumption. No other food in all of existence was designed by evolution specifically for only humans to eat. It exists for one purpose, and one purpose only, and that is to feed humans.
Interesting.
Would you consume raw human milk if it was commercially available and guaranteed disease-free?
