Why not to pasturize- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tzx2dY6mW5A

In 1987 the FDA banned interstate shipping of raw milk and today it's retail sale is only legal in dozen or so states. There's a very devoted group who believe that pasteurized milk is "dead milk" and are fighting to make it easier to buy. Raw milk has such a following that people form secret clubs or buy portions of a cow in order to circumvent state laws regulating its sale.

In March of 2010, Idaho made things just a bit easier for producers of raw milk. A small-herd exemption was passed that allowed farmers with 7 or fewer goats or sheep and 3 or fewer cows to produce raw milk or raw milk products for human consumption.

Raw milk is the absolute bomb Joanie.

I've had family members who were dairy farmers for years, every time we went there all we drank was raw milk, straight outta the vat.  It's so fresh and has that thick layer of cream on the top mmmm.  I miss it now that they dont farm anymore 😞

[lloydslights]

I fondly remember the warm milk served straight from the bucket from our house jersey.  And of course most children were squirted when they asked where it came from.

And to add some humour to the "Revolution"

A very well-to-do woman (Cleo?) ordered a tanker of milk with which to fill her fancy cast iron bath. 

For the milkman to alot the required quality of silky, cleansing fluid, he asked:

"Pasteurize?"

She replied: "No, only up to my shoulders"

Oh you really have me wanting some now. and the thing with being here in southeastern Ohio, there are cows all over. I just haven't yet worked up the nerve to stop by one of these places and asked for some. Im a bit worried that they would think i'm under cover and trying to bust them, or just shoot me.

I always get the whole milk when i get it, i figure thats as close as I can get to the raw milk. Maybe one of these days., i'll sneak up on one of these many cows, I hear they loved to be milked, and I might not blame them lol.

I don't know why anybody would give a child raw milk labelled not for human consumption.

We used to have dairy cows, our milk was mainly used for raising pigs............... we also took 4 litres a day for our own use but, we used a system that involved straining and heating it to a particular temperature, then cooled quickly.

I wonder if it was the storage etc after it left the factory that is the issue.

The only thing that pasteurising kills is pathogens.

Raw milk (UNLESS it is immediately consumed fresh) grows germs at a phenomenal rate and very quickly becomes a problems. Particularly for those already sucseptible like children, old people, pregnant women and those with other illneses/infections.

The rate of death from unpateurised milk was never from unclean udders (although that wouldn't help) but it was from the growth of harnful bacteria within the milk itself and from the various diseases cows invariably hold.

Unclean udders do contribute to bacteria levels in milk.  Just a little something I learned yesterday from a dairy framer   😄

Of-course, they contribute, like if you would drop some cow bleep it wold contribute, but as already said above there already is plenty even if the udder is spotless.

I saw the farmer who produces the "bath milk" and she said something like:  "the people who drink it are people who do not like all the poisons that are being added to the milk".  Really?  Pasteurise means just heating it to a level that kills the pathogens, nothing is added.  There is plenty to worry in our diets, and pasteurised milk is one of the least concerning.

Lloyd / deb,

You cant legislate against stupidty.
If someone feeds it to a kid, well, blame the person who fed it to them.

Its a Bit like blaming the nut maker because a person with. Nut allergy got sick.


I have drunk cows milk from the udder on a number of occasions in the uk.
Pathogens et al are in the milk but worse things are around the farm, house, animals etc if you don't have hygene.
So plenty of other ways to get sick and die.

Botulism for one

I was surprised at the overreaction to the death of the toddler to ban the sale of milk.
A severe over reaction in my opinion.
