That's true
but I find they're just so hard to get at it's not really worth it unless I'm craving baby brains, have loads of time, or it's a special occasion. You can go through the nose, Egypt-style, but their sinuses are usually so small that you need to use a tiny tool and it takes fucking ages. If you take the easy way out and just use a saw to hack off the top of the crown you'll damage the delicious, precious brains. It's kind of a lose lose, which is why I tend to give up and buy it. High quality, fresh baby brains are expensive, but I think it's worth it.

Aren't baby brains
more like pate? Couldn't you just crack the top of the skull off and dip toast points in?

See you'd think so
but therein lies the problem- you can't really crack baby skulls. They haven't properly fused yet, and the force needed to crack them plays havoc with the soft spots- your brains get all bruised and too tender. There's also the possibility of too much blood. A little is nice, it acts as a flavor enhancer, but you don't want your brains drowning in it, you know?

Hmmm....
some sort of vacuum tube, then - real small like so it can absorb major blood vessels? That might also solve the problem of how to serve it in aspic.

If you wanna do it right you'd need to get a medical suction tube
kind of like the ones they use at the dentist but you need an attachment. You can use capilary tubes like the ones in chem lab, only a few micrometers wide, but that too's a pretty slow process, especially if the baby has good clotting agent.

Which is what drives up
the price of hemophiliac babies. My secret - Russians produce more hemophiliacs than any other country per capita. You have to be careful, because adoption's how they get rid of their AIDS babies, but every now and again . . .

I've had a few bad experiences with Russian baby brains
they tend to have more Creutzfeldt-Jacob Disease, (the human form of bovine spongiform encephalitis) or so I've read. That's a risk I'm just not willing to take. The safety of my family comes first.

well i find that if you can get your babies fresh,
before their skulls are set, the brain comes out easily
with the help of a pizza slicer.
im always ready to settle for an arm or a leg, if necessary.
