if they are making ice cream I don't see how that is reserved.
It is used by breast-feeding mothers as a "domestic remedy", for instance as nose drops or eye drops or ointment, and not only for the baby but for the whole family. And if I remember right there are attempts in cancer research which are based on mother's milk. But you're of course right, making ice cream is simply a waste (that only makes people shudder).
