This could be the end of a milk mystery: earlier today Leipzig based scientist Stephen Myers published a photo showing a female coconut breast-feeding her baby. "Coconuts are very shy. Until now we didn't know anything about their social life and breeding. Most people consider them just nuts, but the fact that coconuts produce milk kept bothering me", says Myers. The scientist spent three years in a coconut community and finally got a chance to take a picture of a nursing coconut mother. Myers claims that if his research results prove to be true, the "coco nucifera" has to be renamed "coco bovina".

Wow, Stephanie. I might have to think about boycotting the stores selling coconut milk. Babies need the milk more than I do.
