The average cost of a human birth in the US is $18,865. The avearage weight of a US newborn is 7 lbs (I don't know how many liters that is, I'm 'mericun)*. A typical ratio of usable meat for some mammals is about half the body weight, or 3.5 pounds.
That comes to $5,390/pound grade A baby.
The cost only goes up if you keep them longer. They do put on more weight, but they eat junk food until their in their 30's.
*Okay, okay. It's $11,790.63/kilo
