Pasteurized Milk on its own is kinda gross, I can't imagine willingly subjecting myself to unpasteurized milk.

I've enjoyed milk for the flavour and texture only once: the semester I lived across the street from a dairy. To this day, in the weird circumstance I have milk in the fridge for cooking, I shake it vigourously.

Much of it is about sourcing and practices. Raw milk is not inherently dangerous, and we'd be out a whole world of cheeses if they had to be made from pasteurized.

Raw milk is not inherently dangerous

Unless there's some sort of deadly disease commonly involved in it (which, in the American food supply right now, is what's up.)

I mean bullets are not inherently dangerous either, but if the environment you're going into involves them moving at high speeds sometimes, you probably want to take some precautions about it.

Bullets will give you lead poisoning actually

That’s just lies made up by Big Copper

No, Big Chopper speaks only the truth

That funny because a lot of bullets are copper jacketed

Fun fact, you shouldn't have to shake milk because it is a colloidal solution and, by definition, is already mixed.

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 2 points 1 year ago

Cheese is a whole different beast :)

[–] Vodulas@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Cheese made from raw milk is required to be aged at least 60 days in the US. Way different than drinking it directly.

We really deserve the next pandemic, huh?

[–] drwho@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Somebody seems to think so.

I can't shake the feeling that we're in the middle of a passive-aggressive depopulation operation.
