HUMAN breast milk is raw milk, too.

Ya, but a mom isn't covered in her own feces. I have been on many a diary cattle farms, drinking raw milk from a cow milked while it's standing in 2 inches of cow shit is a bad idea.

As for the jokes above about people dying in the past (sacarsm as if they didn't) but the truth is they did, and in large numbers.

Drinking raw milk from a cow is actually pretty risky.

Sigh. True.

I am such a fan of cheeses made from raw milk. I do know someone who just about died from tapeworm....gotten in France, from such cheeses.

Appenzeller and apples. With grapes and sourdough. Oh...my.

This is a distraction from the real issue. Cleaner milking facilities can always be arranged — milking does not need to happen in a feeding stall. In fact I would hope that our common supermarket milk, even though pasteurized and all, wasn’t extracted from cows who were standing in “2 inches of cow shit” at the time.

Of course it is, that why, with progess, raw milk became processed milk. Human experience, and human lives, showed the value.

However, you are about to get lectured about how wrong you, and the historical records are.
