HONG KONG — Ever wondered what human breast milk tastes like? Well, there’s one grown man who knows very well indeed.

A 42-year-old man appeared in a Hong Kong court on 14 July 2017 after drinking the breast milk of his office co-worker, in a case that has grossed-out the entire city.

According to our sister newspaper, Apple Daily, a new mother employed at at a government office in the Wan Chai district had decided to keep two bottles of her milk in the office fridge.

Unbeknown to her, a co-worker identified in reports simply as Yiu, had a craving that day.

Whether he knew exactly what it was, is still unknown. But reach for the breast milk, he did and downed it all.

The rightful owner of the stolen goodness, and from whose 26-year-old bosom it came, quickly realised something was wrong.

On close inspection, she realized with horror that someone had replaced it with regular dairy. She immediately called police.

An investigation soon netted Yiu, who crumbled under questioning. He finally got it off his chest and confessed to drinking the milk, and at trying to conceal his crime.

The odd news quickly made headlines in the city, with the Hong Kong Breastfeeding Mothers’ Association chiming in to condemn the perverted act.


To prevent a repeat incident, the office in question has since provided a lockable fridge for lactating mothers.

So, moms, watch out. There are some weirdos around, and they walk among us.
