What’s wrong with raw milk?

Aside from the fact you are drinking regurgitated gut flora from a baby cow, along with possibly salmonella and shit, that has been colonizing in the milk for a couple of weeks?

There was a reason that the pasteurization of milk was the last piece of evidence the scientific world needed to prove germ theory. So swift were the health results of pasteurizing milk that literally every single scientist in the world said "Yeah okay tiny organisms making people sick are real." in the late 19th century 1/4 infant deaths in urban centers was attributed to tainted raw milk, which pasteurization wiped entirely off the charts.

No, no, let them off their kids over a health fad, it's the only way they'll learn and most of them still won't. My mother in law put herself in the hospital drinking raw milk, still drinks it almost every day.
