Cockroach milk is sourced from the Pacific Beetle cockroach, a type of roach that gives birth to live offspring and produces ‘milk’, which it feeds its embryos through a ‘brood sac’ (essentially a cockroach womb). There is, in fact, no actual ‘milking’ involved: scientists need to carve out the cockroach’s gut in order to access the milk, which is in the form of crystals.

That’s somehow even worse than my original mental image. Great work science!

  Not worse as the insect shit we eat in the morning, called Honey.

So we could smash those up and snort them, could we not?

  Nothing like snorting a fresh line of crystalized cockroach gut milk in the morning to start the day off right 🥰
