“What does breast milk taste like?”/“Umami.”

“Umami” (one of the five basic tastes) sounds like “yo’ mommy.”  The Wikipedia “umami” entry states that human breast milk has this flavor. Naturally, there are some jokes.
   
“My wife was wondering what her breast milk tastes like, so she asked the baby. And he told her…Umami” was posted on Reddit—Dadjokes on February 5, 2017. “What does breast milk taste like?”/“Umami” was posted on Reddit—Jokes on August 18, 2019.
   
     
Wikipedia: Umami
Umami (/uːˈmɑːmi/, from Japanese: うま味 [ɯmami]) or savory taste is one of the five basic tastes (together with sweetness, sourness, bitterness, and saltiness). It has been described as savory and is characteristic of broths and cooked meats.
(...)
Foods that have a strong umami flavor include broths, gravies, soups, shellfish, fish and fish sauces, tomatoes, mushrooms, hydrolysed vegetable protein, meat extract, yeast extract, cheeses, soy sauce, and human breast milk.
