FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoOkay, whether or not raw milk is generally safe, why buy it when there’s an alternative that removes the pathogens?

Because raw milk contains everything, including all the fat and all the vitamins.
Processed milk usually is first separated between fat and liquid and then the fat is readded. Also the pasteurization destroys some of the vitamins.
More importantly though it just tastes different.
Finally if you want to make yogurt or cream cheese, you want to work of raw milk because it contains the fermenting bacteria, but that is more of a niche application.
Pasteurization by default does not remove all bacteria and probably also not all viruses.

If you’re going to make anything from milk that requires bacterial cultures and the conditions under which they will grow, you absolutely do not want whatever random cultures that are in a raw product. You start clean and add the cultures you want to propagate. Source: ferments things at home

Why are you getting your vitamins from milk?
redisdead@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Most people get their vitamins from their food, not from dietary supplements.

Last I checked, food other than milk exists.

I was just giving reason, that exist to prefer raw milk. I only ever drank raw milk when spending vacations on a farm and i didn’t buy cow milk since a couple of years.
Still i would like to say that i don’t think raw milk is a problematic vector for pandemics to spread. Chance is people will get the shits if hygiene is bad, but i doubt a viral pandemic to spread because of raw milk. More likely would be farm workers getting an infection over the air and then spreading it to other humans.

People who study viruses for a living seem to think it’s possible, but I guess as long as you doubt it, no problem.

These people voted for trump. Critical thinking isn’t in their repertoire.
