          Where I live raw milk is highly regulated. More than pretty much any other food. It’s extremely safe. I am sure on some places it’s a risk.

          And it does in fact taste much better than pasteurized milk. Pasteurized milk to me probably tasted like what canned milk would taste like to you.

          People were drinking unpausterised milk for thousands of years. The risks are minimal.

            Not really. Even old fashioned farmers boil their milk. Almost all milk contains dangerous bacteria regardless of what the safety standards are; this is because things like e.coli are natural for cows but harmful to us humans. Like imagine defending a practice that can literally kill you or give you life long digestive problems.

      I doubt that’s a problem with human milk. We have to pasteurize animal milk because the bacteria that is symbiotic to them is very dangerous to us.
