Two kinds of raw milk

Raw Milk is a bit of a hot button politically these days, and one point that is worth making is that there are TWO kinds of “raw” milk.

There is milk that is raw (unpasturized) that is going to go through the process and so is handled as such. It is much more reckless process because “pasturization covers a multitude of sins”. ;-)

Then there is raw milk that is intended to be healthfully and safely consumed as a superior product by the homesteader or consumer. It is handled with care and as such, can not be hounded with the same “dangerous reputation” that milk in a commercial dairy from an overstimulated, riddled-with-mastitis-and-antibiotic, and probably dirty cow, has.

Here’s a great article that explains some of the finer differences.
