Is a "$1.0 million dollar federal grant and much bigger future guarantees linked to the Organic Valley decision to cut-off raw milk sellers?" 15 y
Excerpt from the Journal of Natural Food and Healing article: "Reasons for Organic Valley Raw Milk Decision: Part of the Government/Corporate Partnership?"
”All business decisions are economic. Follow the money.”

”Should ANY organization be able to force private business to do anything? This is a direct attack on liberty, as is happening at the Government level more and more.”
”This is a blow to the true independent farmer. ...
I am more and more wary of this administration – I feel that they are going to take away basic rights in the name of the common good.

”This is absurd... when you take the emotion out of these topics and actually look at the true science you’ll be far more well informed than these 2. You know why people like raw milk... because it’s about ~3.7 fat - fat is perceived as being sweet. That’s it... if you grow up on a farm, then fine, your body can adjust - but this notion of organics saving the world is just too much - there are so many loopholes around organic ... ex. organic pesticides are far less ... read more
Even The Queen Drinks Raw Milk! 15 y
"Dairying on the historic grounds of Britain's Windsor Castle"
By Ian Gumming (From the Ontario Farmer - Tuesday, Sept. 5, 2006 - Pages 22, 23)
”What hasn’t changed over the centuries is that these herds put raw milk on the Royal family’s and other consumers’ tables... The Queen drinks raw milk from her Jersey herd and when Princes William and Harry were being educated at nearby Eton, ’I would bottle up some milk from the Ayrshire herd every day and run it over to them’.”

"The 15 Things that Pasteurization Kills" 15 y
"What people (actually) are is 'Pasteurization Intolerant'"
By Mark McAfee, Founder Organic Pastures Dairy Company:
There are two raw milks in America, one for “people” and one for the “pasteurizer”.
Raw milk for people is clean, pure comes from cows on green pastures and is regulated on a state by state basis.
Raw milk for the pasteurizer is regulated by the FDA under the Pasteurized Milk Ordinance (PMO) and can be filled with pathogenic bacteria. Raw milk intended for pasteurization is commingled from many CAFO dairies and is never tested for pathogens.

By Jim Fedako, a Lewis Center resident and a frequent contributor to Mises.org, the world center of the Austrian School of economics and libertarian political and social theory.

Article in the Owen Sound Sun Times - Ontario, Canada
”Our governments have their place providing their actions are based on the practice of common sense. In truth, they are working against the tide of reality.
I have a suggestion for Messrs. Algie and Sandik as well as our Minister of Agriculture, our vacillating Ontario Premier and some of his ’yes-men’ -- read Ayn Rand’s book ’Atlas Shrugged’. May I caution them if they are not up to tackling 1,168 pages (for their much needed edification) then for the sake of all ratepayers in the province please read at least the 60 pages starting at page 1,109 for John Galt’s revealing speech.

Osteoporosis 15 y
Calcium requires phosphatase before it can be assimilated and nourish our bones. However, pasteurization destroys phosphatase and Vitamin D!
Further response to the possible notion that raw milk could cause osteoporosis in a comment left at You Tube:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bD_aTnUWAZ0
”We have all been led to believe that (commercial) milk is a wonderful source of calcium, when in fact, pasteurization makes calcium and other minerals less available. Complete destruction of phosphatase is one method of testing to see if milk has been adequately pasteurized. Phosphatase is essential for the absorption of calcium. ”

Industry Turned Milk Into A "Displacing Food of Commerce" 15 y
Commentary by Chef Jem on a most recent "milk war" article.

(Image at article page) A 19th century illustration of ”swill milk” being produced: a sickly cow being milked while held up by ropes. (Frank Leslie’s Illustrated Weekly)
By the mid-1800’s in America, some raw milk production had shifted away from farms and into highly-populated cities. Big cities did not have pastures or clean water, and the cows in city dairies were kept in filthy conditions with poor nutrition and poor animal health. Many of these cows were fed byproducts from alcohol distilleries, lead ... read more

”Here’s what’s being said about us: amusing that at this late date, Dr Kendall is hedging his bets, now saying that it’s ’likely’ ’the anonymous sick child got sick from drinking milk from our dairy’. For months, the Health Authorities asserted it as a fact. What changed? ..... maybe us getting our side of the story out in Public?
I say = absent evidence, there was no ’sick baby’ = it never happened. But the diktocrats don’t care. They’ve done their job, leaving the impression in the public mind that REAL MILK is dangerous. And that govt.-licensed milk on store shelves is good fo ... read more

Why are we scared of bacteria? Why do we fear bacteria? It’s the best part of us. It is what we are; its what spaceship Earth is made of. And without it we can’t interact with food, we can’t nourish ourselves, it’s a critical part of the whole detritus system that ... read more
