If people want to pay for organic, I say more power to ‘em.

I thought it was legally problematic these days to sell unpasteurized, however.

Notice that their cows are fed hay, rather than grain, very important. Cows did not evolve to eat corn and soy feed, as a result about half of the bicarbonate of soda made in the U.S. of A. goes to cattle suffering indigestion (History Channel reference). The “range-fed” and “kill-it-and-grill-it” crowd insist this makes feedlot beef bad for us. Whatever, I say vote with your wallets.

Yes you're right about the unpasteurized problem. They actually DO pasteurize the milk. It's in the story, buried, but in there.

The article said they pasturize their product.

Good for them, making their dream come true.

Well, it is true that higher sugar/higher carb diets for animals that ferment their food (rumination) cna have serious bacterial imbalances that cause them to produce more gas than they normally would, and cause bad bacteria levels to get dangerously high and require antibiotics to control.

Hence grass fed cattle can have less gi tract problems and infections than corn fed cattle. Too much sugar is bad for any animal. Look what it does to man. Every animal eating too much sugar is more prone to infections, their immune system is weakened, they get obese, and the body pH shifts towards a pro-cancer, more acidic environment.
