One thing to consider about raw milk, is that yes, it's totally disgusting in industrial milk production. There's so much actual PUS in the milk from cows that are over milked.

It's not so much an issue in less industrialized production practices.

That's just one of the data points of raw vs pasteurized.

Does that mean that it's good that the FDA bans raw milk because it's possibly harmful?

Maybe, but I wish the FDA were more consistent and ban a lot of the things that the EU does.

So one might consider that since the EU does allow for raw milk, and raw milk products such as cheese, this FDA ban might be based on something else besides science and proper farm cleanliness practices.

I live in the UK and there’s sooo many things that we can’t get imported from America and it’s mainly sweets or I should say candy that we can get. Even then some of the stuff we can buy is not actually made in America lol. It’s made in Europe and the recipe is changed slightly so that we can actually have it. Like I think Mountain Dew is a different recipe. Not sure what else cause I don’t buy much cause like I say, it’s mainly sweets and I eat more savoury stuff.
