Raw milk?

Question

I try to buy most of my foods for local farmer and farmers markets.
One of the farmers I buy from has raw milk and I would love to buy some for my family to drink but my husband isn't on board with drinking raw milk as much as me.
So ladies do any of you drink raw milk? And is it actually better better for you and your family?

Answer

All milk is bad for the human body except human female's milk.

Answer

We used to before the cow was too old to produce,  so we slaughtered her.  You have to make sure the cow/goat/whatever is healthy (duh), but you can also send it off for testing if he's still not ok with it. Not that animal milk is best for humans (especially cow), but if you cook it you're destroying most of the nutrients you think you're getting. Find a good Jersey cow and have at it. Anything is better than Holstein.

Answer

I would love to!  It's supposed to be so much better for you!  But unfortunately in the U.S. The only legal way to purchase raw milk is to legally be part owner of the cow it came from.  Even in cheese form, you can only purchase hard raw milk cheeses in the U.S. Bc anything aged for less than 60 days has to be pasteurized.  This is why I always laugh when I here doctors in the U.S. Say "no soft cheeses unless their pasteurized". Well unless you smuggled something in from another country or purchased it from an outlaw farmer, all soft cheeses are pasteurized in the U.S. As they must be according to the 60 day rule.

Answer

I have been blessed to have either lived or worked on a dairy farm my entire life (25yr). Been drinking milk straight from the bulk tank practically from day one and wouldn't have it any other way. I can't even drink store bought milk it's so gross to me. Never gotten sick from it either.

Answer

I tried it once. I thought it tasted great..the only downside is that it's not pasteurized. You could end up getting really sick.

Answer

We have been drinking it for years. Never been sick from it and it tastes incredible!

Answer

Be careful with raw, unpasteurized milk. If you didn't grow up drinking it, it can make you sick. It's NOT the same as milk from a store.

My cousins have a farm and milk heir own cows. They keep raw, unpasteurized milk for themselves but they one give pasteurized milk to guests who have not grown up drinking raw milk.

Answer

My mom grew up drinking milk straight from her relatives farm. As long as it comes from healthy cows and a clean environment, I'd say it's fine. I'd get raw milk but I live too far from the farm to convince my husband to drive.

Answer

Do you mean unpasteurised? We get unpasturiesed cheese sometimes. I dunno, what's the worst that could happen? Food poisoning? If that's the case, I don't care, I eat oysters and stuff so...

Answer

Don't you guys boil milk before consuming? Raw or pasteruized, we boil the milk and have no issues with it. It is way better than the milk we get from outside
