Woah… ho… Gotta love that clickbait title. I’ll cut to the chase though- more research is needed before you can get roach milk on the shelf. From the article:

“But today we have no evidence that it is actually safe for human consumption.”

“Plus roaches aren’t the easiest creatures to milk.”

      Agreed.

      As a kid I recall stepping on one and thick white milk squirted out. Another kid said “just like a Jr. mint!” Ever since then, I have been unable to mentally separate Jr. mints from cockroaches. And to be clear, that association was not an upgrade for the roaches… it was a mental downgrade to Jr. mints.
