Is this the Organic Pastures brand? Can you get any

more particulars? Like the location and contact info

for the dairy itself? I called my closest Trader Joes

and they knew nothing about it, but if I could get in

touch with the dairy maybe I could get the hfs in the

nearest town to carry it, or at least the co-op that's

an hour away. Please, please, please, any additional

info would be greatly appreciated!

How safe is that stuff nowadays? I knew a guy decades ago that got

undulent fever and was very sick for a long time, from some

unpasteurized milk. I am sort of hoping to see some irradiated milk

hit the shelves, that would be the best of all worlds, never cooked

but disease free.

Hi Max -

Rather than try to answer your concerns in detail, I'd just say that

sources of foods are always an important topic to me. I prefer fresh,

natural, unadulterated foods and I like to get to know the sources well

enough to have confidence in the high quality I demand.

Either by irradiation or pasteurization any food's ability to pass on

life-giving qualities is enormously reduced or entirely lacking. Or more

often the food then becomes disease-prone and/or poison (either slow or

fast) to whatever eats it.

I think the Raw Milk web site can explain far better than

I: http://www.rawmilk.org/
