And then watching them "discover" that boiling raw milk makes it safe to drink.
It's like the vaccine skeptics suggesting exposure to a weakened virus to build natural immunity.
I make cheese every once in a while, and there are plenty of cheeses that are made from raw milk (and are safe to do so as long as they are aged for the right amount of time). A few years back, I tried to get some, but you apparently had to line up at the farmers market before it opened to get it. I ended up just buying non-homogenized milk from a local creamy who sold at the grocery store instead.
All of these people who claim that raw milk has such a better taste/texture need to just try drinking non-homogenized milk (even though that's a fake excuse, and the real reason they want to drink it is because "science" tells them not to).
