    Consuming raw milk when you’re buying it from a small/peasant farmer that doesn’t do much to their cows is one thing. Buying it from factory farms or any large scale operation is another thing entirely.

    Additionally raw milk is actually really helpful for people trying to make cultures. My aunt and uncle used to make keffir and they had way better results with raw milk than pasturized. In their case the fermentation was actually a way of sanitizing the food of harmful bacteria.

    It should be noted that even pasteurized milk can still be unhealthy and cause various health issues, for best results consider tofu-cool
