Dr. Price in his book (Nutrition and Physical Degeneration) wrote:

"... From Dr. Siegen, I learned much about the life and customs of these people. He told me that they recognize the presence of Divinity in the life-giving qualities of the butter made in June when the cows have arrived for pasturage near the glaciers. He gathers the people together to thank the kind Father for the evidence of his Being in the life-giving qualities of butter and cheese made when the cows eat the grass near the snow line. This worshipful program includes the lighting of a wick in a bowl of the first butter made after the cows have reached the luscious summer pasturage. This wick is permitted to burn in a special sanctuary built for the purpose. The natives of the valley are able to recognize the superior quality of their June butter, and, without knowing exactly why, pay it due homage."

I was inspired to find this quote by reading a reference to it in: "Cure Tooth Decay" by Rami Nagel:
http://www.curetoothdecay.com/

in his free preview download that is well worth getting!. (This might be the best Price-based book on how to cure cavities). Rami says that the evidence "of his Being in the life-giving qualities of butter ..." is "Activator X" which Rami says is also known as Vitamin K-2. I believe the credit for identifying Activator X as Vitamin K-2 needs to go to Chris Masterjohn ( as reported in his article published in the Spring '07 issue of the Wise Traditions journal).

I want to celebrate this image of "... the lighting of a wick in a bowl of the first butter ... permitted to burn in a special sanctuary built for the purpose" where "the natives of the valley ... pay it due homage".
I also want to contrast this radiant living image with all the images of industrialized dairy commerce. The former image carries the tradition of the highest value of the cow and it's amazing products that can support a community. In contrast we see that the industrialization and transformation of real milk (of the quality that was once worthy of being paid homage to) is so far removed from environments like that of the (above) Loetschental Valley, that all the commercial images of "contented cows" and the like are possibly criminal! I will ask the industrialized dairies: Where's these missing "life-giving qualities". Where is the real milk and butter that is worthy of our homage? Where is "the grass", man?
