Have you guys seen this CDC study on raw milk/dairy that shows many outbreaks?

This is all meaningless, really. I mean, modern peoples' immune-systems and digestive systems are so weak due to diet that they are hyper-sensitive to even slightly different levels of bacteria. Not all of them, of course. I believe most food-poisoning etc. affects mainly only very young babies and the very old, according to statistics.

CDC and the govt has an agenda vs raw milk.   See how you feel after drinking a qt of pasteurized milk (i feel tired and lousy) vs a qt of raw milk (i feel energized).  i wish it weren't the case because i rather pay $2.50/gallon rather than $16/gallon anyday.

also, there are large industrial dairies that have a huge investment in their concrete setups and equipment.  The grass fed producers threaten their investment if raw milk really catches on.

I don't trust the data. No doubt they're cooking the numbers.

See what I did there?
