I think the laws are different now, because I see it at the Whole Foods, but years ago (in California) you had to go through this weird “I’m not buying raw milk” theater where you “buy” a fraction of a dairy animal, and pay for a fraction of its care, feeding, milking and housing to the farmer each month (about $50 a month for a single “share” of the animal). And as part of the agreement, you were entitled to your share of your animal’s milk, delivered to your doorstep. Not buying a half gallon of raw milk per week for $50 per month… no no… no milk has been purchased.
To be fair, raw milk is to pasteurized milk as whole milk is to skim milk. Not worth dying over though.
How do you even get raw milk? I’m not enthusiastic enough to visit the farm myself
You’re obviously not a true patriot.
