Who in this day and age wouldn't drink pasteurised milk?
Besides like, properly stupid people, or people who think it'll give them religious powers and other such nutters.
Those who take horse medication to fire COVID... probably
This is likely more in the crunchy, no measles vax set of dipshits, not MAGA.
i'd bet the Venn diagram of both groups would overlap in more than 90%
The word you’re looking for is dipshits.
So, RFK?
dad, no!
"Yes, son! I can't fulfill my destiny as Mooman any other way..."
The Meatcanyon videos will be glorious.
Raw milk is silly....but also, now are the banned cheeses unbanned? Probably not cazu whatever the fuck, the Sardinian maggot cheese but there's stuff like brie, but raw, that's apparently yummy.
Someone commented on Lemmy a whole ago that cheese with raw milk is different. Coles notes is the good bacteria out-competes the bad ones.
Who drinks milk at all? I get a giant zit immediately after having some.
I'm lactose intolerant but I use a little bit of lactose-free, 0% fat milk for my coffee in the morning because the alternatives (almond or oat milk) just don't taste as good with coffee.
Just drink it black. After two cups you get used to it.
Yuck, why bother?
It depends if you like coffee, or coffee flavored milkshakes.
Hmm, put that way, most definitely the milkshake. I'm not sure I even like coffee, it provides a break at work and energy in the morning, with enough milkshake ingredients of course.
Fair point but when you drink it black you don't need to bother with the overly processed milk anymore
Hey look some who thinks pasteurized milk is "overly processed"!
"lactose free 0% fat milk"
Then you just have the overly-processed coffee.
And? Adding overly-processed milk to overly-processed coffee cancels out the processing or something? Don't drink it then.
It's really brand dependant. Honestly recommend trying brands till you find a good couple. Some oat and almond are smooth AF. I like Vitasoy and So Good, for example. Not a shill, just took brute forcing brands.
If it’s ultra pasteurized you should be fine, but as in all things, do your own personal threat analysis.
Growing up I used to down pints of milk, couldn't get enough of the stuff
Half & half in coffee. We go very unprocessed and cook in my household. So I buy half and half which is just milk and cream. It’s delicious in coffee. It’s also ultra pasteurized. A little heat in the name of microbe death is great.
Apart from that, milk is a cooking ingredient. Again, ultra pasteurized.
europeans
Yeah, we've got those who promise themselves health benefits from drinking raw milk. I have the impression that this is mostly prevalent in esoteric people, as usual with such stuff.
But such beneficial claims of raw milk consumption appear to be not scientifically sound and are a myth.

Believe it or not, they have dictionaries online now.
Isn't "esoteric people" an accurate description?
Eh. It would imply those people are mysterious or difficult to understand. They're not, they're just stupid.
Hm okay. English is not my native language. I've checked this with a dictionary and found it to be an adequate description, even discussed this with ChatGPT. It pointed out that this can also be understood in the way you've described it.
What I meant were people who practise in esotericism, like briefly described here. Besides "stupid", what do you suggest to describe such people?
Also, thanks for pointing that out!
properly stupid people
This study is 20 years old.

I've seen Europeans make the fact that Americans don't generally drink unpasteurized milk into a "yanks dumb" thing
You can buy unpasteurized milk in europe in a supermarket ?
Seeing the other post about France: It depends on the country. In Germany you can't (only direct at the farm). Saw a documentary some weeks ago about Spain where they said that it is also forbidden (the journalist wanted to drink raw camel milk).
Just re-checked: In theory you can buy raw milk in Germany in a supermarket. It is called "Vorzugsmilch" then. But I never saw any.
yes, filtered but not pasteurized (France)
