There's poop in any dairy barn. Cows are filthy beasts, which is why we pasteurize stuff that comes out of an orifice not far from their a$$holes. Or we should anyway.

But having poop on the floor of a dairy barn is not a huge red flag.

No, it is not extremely dangerous.

We grew up buying raw milk from the dairy farmer. We would boil, cool, refrigerate and then consume as regular pasteurized milk.

When we did not have a fridge, we boiled the milk morning and evening to kill any pathogens. No one EVER got sick.

If you cook it, it's not raw. Boiling it kills the germs, just like pasteurization, just at a higher temp.

I don't think Hannah is as problematic as people make her out to be. She's a Mormon woman acting like a Mormon woman - having lots of kids, running a jobby type business, going to church, and really only socializing with her mom and her 500 sisters and nieces. (Her oldest sister and the sister's oldest daughter were pregnant at the same time last year.) She used to do beauty pageants which was kind of cringe but I think she's over that cause she hasn't done it in a couple years.

She never verbalizes a tradwife agenda. Imo, cooking from scratch for your 50 kids isn't "tradwife propaganda." It's just something that the type of person who has 50 kids on a farm in the middle of nowhere has to do. She never says women should get married and have as many babies as possible, she never says women should quit their jobs, she's never even really pushed the raw milk thing except to say it tastes good to her, but I think that's gross. She's never said anything pro-Trump or even remotely political. When I think of tradwife propaganda I think of Allie Beth Stuckey telling women to skip college and get married and have babies as early as possible, not a Mormon farmer's wife making sourdough for her kids.

Saying she's a MAGA moron who wants her DD to be raped by an older man as someone did a couple posts up is beyond vile.

I unfollowed her because her kids always screaming in the background would spike my cortisol but I didn't find her to be the right wing monster people make her out to be. If there's anything antifeminist about her it's that she spends a ton of time and money to be appealing to the male gaze, but I do the same so who am I to judge.

I guess the "facility and infrastructure" issues mean that they have to have much smaller batches as the risk of contamination increases as you mix larger volumes that are unpasterized. And you probably need refrigeration at every step.

I drank raw milk when I was traveling through Switzerland. The owner of a lodge had a few cows. But like someone mentioned upthreas, she did boil the milk before serving it. It was delicious.

lol, do you know what pasteurization is? Milk is brought to 160 degrees for 15 seconds. The reason nobody got sick from your raw milk is you brought it to 212 degrees.

I can’t stop laughing at the just boil the raw milk people. Like literally how are people this clueless.

I would've been willing to try their meat but that kind of turned me off. If you're getting hair in a effing seasoning blend what's going on with the meat.
