If you mean "Cheez-Whiz" -- I wouldn't classify it as a drug.  Nor would I
classify it as a food!  :)

WOW.  OK, so perhaps he did it deliberately to be ambiguous.  This
description of his other provocative cover actually puts a whole new light
on it.  Interesting . . . . like the film "Rain Without Thunder" a
commercial release film I show to students which is about reproductive
choice issues in the US of the future.  And half the students think the
movie is pro-life and half that it is pro-choice.  To bring this back to
breastfeeding -- there is a very brief, but lovely shot in the movie of a
woman breastfeeding a baby (quintessenial motherhood?).  She is the guard in
the guardhouse of the prison where they lock up women who had abortions.
