The USA is being run by idiots, and some people want to import the nonsense here.

The problem is less the raw milk than the treatment/transport. Drink uncooled within 15 minutes of milking, when instantly cooled: on the same day. Do not swap containers more than 2-3 times.

Which basically means: only available next to the barn the cows are milked in.

You can still get brucellosis that way.

@peyremorgan @vampirdaddy @selzero I was raised on raw milk from a 'brucellosis accredited herd' at least that's what it said on the bottle.

Not sure I'd do it today.. the small dairies that existed when I grew up don't exist any more, it's all industrial.
