The Raw Milk Controversy

New Jersey has these kind of addicts all over the state. They love and crave this substance so much they'll go to great lengths to get it. Luckily there are suppliers who can cater to these needs and wants. What is this that has ordinary , law abiding citizens go rogue just for a drop?

Raw milk, a substance that is completely illegal in my state. Neighboring states, New York and Pennsylvania have laxer laws than ours regarding milk and this is where a lot of addicts get theirs. Raw milk is considered dangerous by some health professionals because it's not pasteurized and homogenized. The first gets rid of the bacteria that is in all milk and the second basically breaks down the fat globules that result in cream. It may produce in a better milk however it lacks taste and texture. This is what raw milk addicts hate.

The stuff is supposedly heaven with a rich creamy flavor. First timers who drink it are usually hooked by the initial sip. Raw milk can be made into fresh butter (yum!!) along with cheese, sour cream and buttermilk. There are many recipes from puddings to pancakes that involve these by products. Don't be afraid to buy it if your state allows it. Raw milk does have a lot of benefits, despite what has been said. it has all twenty amino acids and full doses of vitamins and minerals. It's chock full of calcium which is good for everything for fighting cancer to building stronger bones and teeth.Raw milk also has beneficial bacteria and this is great for making your own "Activia" style yogurt.

Consider yourself blessed if you live in a dairy state that allows for the sale of raw milk. This is a delicious and beneficial drink that is perfect plain but also in recipes. Try to get a few bottles today and taste what raw milk addicts are raving about.
