Fun fact:
The dairy was fined in 2023 for a Salmonella outbreak and is very militantly anti-government.
ugh i wish

Just have a spoon of pesticides after drinking that pure natural raw milk. If it’s good for the corn it’s good for you.

Throw in some powerful antibiotics too … if it’s good for the cow, it’s good for you

Am i seeing this right, that you can buy raw milk in grocery stores? What the fuck?
Raw milk gets bad way to fast in order to sell it in a grocery store.

Imagine deliberately paying a premium for food that can make you seriously ill.
This applies to maybe 80% of what’s in a grocery store.
duramu@beehaw.org 5 months ago
I believe it has to be bought at the farm but they still do commercial packaging
cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 5 months ago
That’s interesting. I wouldn’t have thought, that so many people buy raw milk, that its profitable to do commercial packaging.
enbyecho@lemmy.world 5 months ago
When kept below about 3C raw milk can last 7-10 days. The problem mainly is in the handling - the longer it’s shipped and more it’s handled the higher the likelihood it ends up above safe temperatures, reducing that time significantly. And we’ve all seen how grocery stores handle their perishables… LOL.

Filthy farming practices don’t help.
3ntranced@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Is it like a new thing? I never heard anyone making a fuss about raw milk other than like the Amish for the quarter of a century I’ve been around.
It seems to be based around the people who just look for problems to have, like okay when are people gonna start drinking bottled puddle water because “its got natural minerals and bacteria” or some nonsense.
sulgoth@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Raw water was a thing. Not sure if it’s still a trend but it definately happened.
uis@lemm.ee 5 months ago
Doesn’t it last 5-7 days? In Europe it is long enough.
ZeffSyde@lemmy.world 5 months ago
People like my boomer mother will buy a gallon of milk and expect it to be good for 2+weeks.
She is part of the reason I do a small shopping every couple days and only but what I need for the foreseeable future. An entire generation of Americans that are used to everything being so pumped with preservatives that we can eat a Twinkie that rolled under the couch last presidential election.
Yet, we have to scrub eggs of their natural coating at the farm, requiring them to be refrigerated.
Food regulation in the US hasn’t moved very far from the 60s.
cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 5 months ago
All i can say is, that at “normal” refrigirator temperatures milk will be good for 3-4 days. Cant say anything for temperatures below that
redisdead@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Why are people surprised by this? Do you guys not have refrigerators in your grocery stores?
cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 5 months ago
Raw milk gets bad after about 3-4 days, even with constant cooling. This period is way to short to sell it at grocerie stores in any big scale.
riodoro1@lemmy.world 5 months ago
We do, but we also have pasteurization.
problematicPanther@lemmy.world 5 months ago
You see, in America, the milk cattle live in terrible conditions. Mastitis is common. In the US, you really have to pasteurize the milk to kill all the bacteria and viruses that end up in the milk because of the conditions they live in.
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Okay, whether or not raw milk is generally safe, why buy it when there’s an alternative that removes the pathogens?

Wonder if they tried heating the milk up to 63 degrees C for 30 mins before consumption?
Maybe that would help.

iAvicenna@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Crazy how if it was any democrat saying drink raw milk s/he would likely be accused of a conspiracy in which he is trying to spread bird flu so they can have another pandemic and vaccine manufacturers make money out of it. But when a republican says it, s/he is probably celebrated for using the wisdom of our grand grand parents.
zephorah@lemm.ee 5 months ago
I mean, viruses are kind of Trumps thing. Maybe H5N1 kills another million or so to mark his second term.
chiliedogg@lemmy.world 5 months ago
H5N1 is way, way more lethal than Covid19.
If it were to mutate to spread between humans without decreasing in lethality it would probably be the deadliest event in human history by a significant margin.
P00ptart@lemmy.world 5 months ago
H5N1 would kill a lot more than a million if it goes H2H.

I’ve seen some shit claiming pasteurization is harmful and I just have to ask if the people who believe that know what pasteurization even is, because how the hell does boiling it make it harmful? Shit… If boiling milk makes it toxic, you better stay away from cheese. And a lot of baked goods. Creamy soups. Etc.
Luccus@feddit.org 5 months ago
Not even fully boiling. To quote Wikipedia, because I’m lazy:
The liquid moves in a controlled, continuous flow while subjected to temperatures of 71.5 °C (160 °F) to 74 °C (165 °F), for about 15 to 30 seconds, followed by rapid cooling to between 4 °C (39.2 °F) and 5.5 °C (42 °F).
Literally 30 seconds of “pretty hot”. And people are risking serious illness, even death, over some mythical beliefs about how nutrition works.

This is the whole “gluten is poison” (for people not actually intolerant to gluten) all over again. Those people also had no idea that it was just wheat protein.

Soulg@sh.itjust.works 5 months ago
The problem is when they ignore the answer to keep asking the question waiting to hear what they want to hear.
megopie@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 months ago
It’s so bizarre to see this discussion play out on the basis of “health”
Because there is a legitimate discussion to be had about the economics of how milk pasteurization requirements have affected local dairy farms. How the unsanitary conditions of industrial scale milk production have made it a necessity. How marketing and corporate interests have shifted consumption patterns.
And yet these fucking dipshits have turned this in to “pasteurized milk personally harms you!” In grifter circles.
How screwed are we that we can’t talk about the complexities of how corporate farming practices have effected our food supplies with out couching it in terms of “health food”.
I cannot express how much I hate the term “health food”. There is no such fucking thing as a “health food”.
It makes me want to rip my hair out when these topics come up.
immutable@lemm.ee 5 months ago
This problem has always bugged me writ large as well. It seems nearly impossible to have any conversation that looks at the bigger picture of things in a complete and nuanced way.
Take for example employment rates. It’s just taken as a given that high employment is the goal. But stop and think about that for a second. In any other part of your life is your goal to completely saturate all time with labor? No, obviously not.
But the goals are set and we must achieve them. More money next quarter than last quarter, it doesn’t matter if every conceivable customer already has a subscription, we must grow. Make the product cheaper to make, charge more, do anything but consider that we might have picked stupid goals.

Hey, I live there and someone just posted on our local Facebook page asking where to get some raw milk. I’ll send them a link.
BoogerBearadactyl@lemmy.world 5 months ago
So, I don’t really understand the science, but my son is only able to drink raw milk. When he drinks normal milk, he has terrible stomach aches and mad diarrhea. When he drinks raw milk, it’s all rainbows and butterflies. For reference, he’s 3 and has been drinking the raw milk for around a year and a half. Also, the rest of the family had no issues drinking pasteurized milk. Maybe somebody smarter than me could explain why this is?
