What? Why? Have you ever had any? When I was a kid, we'd go to the market in the outskirts of the city in the morning. By the time we bought it, it was usually still warm. Quite honestly, I don't see anything wrong with raw milk as long as it's fresh and the cow lives in "proper" conditions. It strikes me as odd that something that seemingly "normal" is downright illegal here in the States.Raw milk yuck. But if you want it, I think you should have it. Please turn your head away when you puke though.
Dude, there is a reason we pasteurize milk - it has nothing to do with flavor and everything to do with food safety. Heck, I used the eggy version when I make Caesar salad or hollandaise sauce - though I rarely make either anymore b/c I'm eating healthier. Just saying that salmonisis is yucky. -XC PS - Shouldn't be illegal. If you toast off granny or baby using raw milk, well, government's job isn't to swaddle people.
Considering it's deemed safe in most of the world, including most countries in Europe (with proper inspections), I'd think that the dangers of raw milk are a bit overblown. I dare say there might even be some lobbying involved. But hey, I find the idea of eating raw fish or raw beef revolting.
Tangential, but I was surprised to find that the reason I like my organic milk so much is because they pasteurize it at a higher heat (probably due to a lack of antibiotics). That caramelizes the sugars, and makes it slightly sweeter. It's also why the shelf-life is much longer than non-organic. On topic, I agree that adults should be able to drink what they want. However, if you are selling raw milk, you should have to alert people to it, and if it's at a sufficient scale, get inspected/tested.
