    the post is highlighting the hypocrisy in refrigerating milk while also being against milk pasteurization, since both of those practices have been done for around a hundred years and serve to make milk last longer and be safer to drink.

      Just about every dairy product (butter, cheese, whey, buttermilk) was made as a way to keep milk safe for consumption. Rejecting pasteurization, which is just slightly warming up milk is incredibly obtuse and reeks of deliberate ignorance

      The reason for avoiding pasteurization is to maintain nutrients.

      It’s got nothing to do with whatever ethic might require a person to purposefully invite infection, as this post seems to presuppose.

        No, it’s just ignorance. Plus if it DID destroying nutrients in any meaningful sense, you would still get more nutrients because you wouldn’t be having constants diarrhea due to drinking raw milk.

        So what scientific experiments have you conducted to come to this conclusion? Obviously, you can never trust a real scientist, right? So you must have done SOMETHING to come to this conclusion all on your own.

        So tell me your methods. I’d love to see your groundbreaking findings, since you’re the smartest person in the world and no one will ever be able to trump your science.
