Growing up as a millennial, you got your gallon at the store and that was that. In grade school each year at least a paragraph if not a chapter was dedicated to the heroics of Louis Pasteur and his world renown life saving pasteurization discovery. But now, local dairy farms are offering raw milk, and I’ve a few friends who are swearing by it, as tastier, helping with digestion, skin issues, etc. but the CDC would lead me to believe if we buy raw milk we will all get E. coli and die . So just knowing that so many of you are leap years ahead of me on such subject. What’s the deal? Raw milk yes? Raw milk risky business?

Have a small annual "herd share" in a farmer's herd. The share gets around Michigan laws against unpasteurized milk. I pick-up 1-1/2 gallons of raw milk per week for my wife and I. Great stuff, but must be kept cold to last one week.
No plans to ever go back to flash heated and nutrient dead milk.
