Some relatively unknown French microbiologist is rolling in his grave right now.

I bet the solution is so fast, it’s past your eyes before you know it.

Edit: for anybody who is hearing impaired.

Sounds like something a guy named Louie would think of.

Stop drinking milk not intended for you, problem solved. Go Vegan !

Fr. It tastes the same, barely taxing for the environment compared to cow milk (depending on the type of milk), plus you don't torture animals. Sounds like a win-win-win situation to me

Edit: Gimme your downvotes guys. I thrive on them 💅🏻

So, I don't really understand the science, but my son is only able to drink raw milk. When he drinks normal milk, he has terrible stomach aches and mad diarrhea. When he drinks raw milk, it's all rainbows and butterflies. For reference, he's 3 and has been drinking the raw milk for around a year and a half. Also, the rest of the family had no issues drinking pasteurized milk. Maybe somebody smarter than me could explain why this is?

You're going to be pretty sad when your kid dies due to your poorly informed decisions.

Am i seeing this right, that you can buy raw milk in grocery stores? What the fuck?

Raw milk gets bad way to fast in order to sell it in a grocery store.

Why are people surprised by this? Do you guys not have refrigerators in your grocery stores?

Okay, whether or not raw milk is generally safe, why buy it when there's an alternative that removes the pathogens?

Because raw milk contains everything, including all the fat and all the vitamins.

Processed milk usually is first separated between fat and liquid and then the fat is readded. Also the pasteurization destroys some of the vitamins.

More importantly though it just tastes different.

Finally if you want to make yogurt or cream cheese, you want to work of raw milk because it contains the fermenting bacteria, but that is more of a niche application.

Pasteurization by default does not remove all bacteria and probably also not all viruses. The milk you commonly find in supermarkets these days is not only pasteurized at high temperature, but also homogenized (pressed through a microsieve), which further alters the taste, reduces quality but extends the shelf life.

Why are you getting your vitamins from milk?
