last time I drank raw milk I was 9 and I got Yellow Jaundice..AKA Hepatitis...

I find it encouraging that someone somewhere thinks using SWAT Teams against dairy farmers is ridiculous ...

I'm sure technology has progressed since then. Testing for disease can be carried out on a single chip now.

I don't get the benefits of raw milk...
I'm sure I consumed some in my pre teens.

I don't either. And, since I'm missing my spleen I've got a compromised immune system. I certainly wouldn't drink it.
However, a free people can determine what they consume without government telling them what they can and can't do.
This is about freedom from nanny government, not food safety.

I has good bacteria in it plus many people think it tastes better.
Its also necessary for cheese making.

I've made cheese with powdered whole milk. Not great cheese, but cheese.
The microbes may help the flavor of specialty cheeses, but they aren't required. Any cheese making supply can provide pure cultures of required bacteria, along with rennet.

My mom's father and step mother lived on 30 acres in S. Iowa. They had a Jersey cow that provided splendid milk. thick as a milkshake.
Then one day, stupid cousin hit the cow with his pickup while delivering corn for the cow. That was the end of “Ol Jerse.”
Damn !

Perhaps i should have said good cheese.

I drank raw milk every day of my life until the folks moved to town when I was 16 - apparently there are some immunities transmitted in the unpasteurized and unhomogenized version of that freshest of products.
The milk was generally consumed the day it was produced, as there was some concern about refrigeration. What cooling there was came about largely because of submerging the milk cans in fresh-flowing spring water, as mechanical means were not yet in widespread use in rural communities.

I wish we could get it down here in FL. Its impossible to make cheese from the usual ultra-pasteurized milk.

I don’t have the slightest interest in consuming raw milk, but I don’t see why other people shouldn’t have it.

If you have problems with digestion, raw milk is a superb probiotic.

I don't get the benefits of raw milk... Helped me get over some wicked acid reflux. Of course, this being Florida, I had to accidentally get from my 'pet's' supply.

This is just crazy talk. before you know it they will be letting people eat and drink what they please. What comes next, freedom of speech too? It’s a slippery slope.
