Not sure why this is downvoted. Probably because of the agressive wording, but imo you are right. They just want the pure milk, because it's pure. Not because it's better in any way.

I do wonder every now and then if there is a way to stop this trend. I do believe that most people know that they'd have all the information available to prove themselves wrong. But that's just uncomfortable. Being the one who "knows better" feels better. We need to embrace uncomfortable truths more.

I do not drink raw milk. However, I have once or twice on a farm, and it does taste better. More creamy and full bodied. Like the difference between pasturised orange juice and fresh orange juice. So there is a reason other than purity and ego.

The French can access raw milk and cheeses made from raw milk. As I understand it, one or two people a year in France die from this.

I’ve tasted pasteurized milk from a farm. It’s also more creamy and full bodied.

I don’t think it’s the lack of pasteurization that made the milk you tasted different but the fact that it was directly from the farm and from healthier animals.

That being said, oat milk beats the crap out of cow’s milk for me now minus the hormones, antibiotics, abuse and torture.

Are you uncomfortable with people making choices different than yours? Should we all strive to believe and do exactly what you believe and do?

As long as we share our health insurance system, i will try hard to stop you from jeopardizing your health.

Yes of course
