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%

dad, no!

The Meatcanyon videos will be glorious.

The word you’re looking for is dipshits.

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.

esoteric people

Believe it or not, they have dictionaries online now.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Isn't "esoteric people" an accurate description?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

properly stupid people

Who drinks milk at all? I get a giant zit immediately after having some.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (3 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Just drink it black. After two cups you get used to it.

It depends if you like coffee, or coffee flavored milkshakes.

[–] meliaesc 1 points 2 months ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Fair point but when you drink it black you don't need to bother with the overly processed milk anymore

[–] Glytch 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hey look some who thinks pasteurized milk is "overly processed"!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

"lactose free 0% fat milk"

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Then you just have the overly-processed coffee.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 2 months ago

And? Adding overly-processed milk to overly-processed coffee cancels out the processing or something? Don't drink it then.

[–] bananabenana 3 points 2 months ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

If it’s ultra pasteurized you should be fine, but as in all things, do your own personal threat analysis.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

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.

Growing up I used to down pints of milk, couldn't get enough of the stuff

[–] Lennny 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

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.

I've seen Europeans make the fact that Americans don't generally drink unpasteurized milk into a "yanks dumb" thing

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

You can buy unpasteurized milk in europe in a supermarket ?

[–] DaBPunkt 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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).

[–] DaBPunkt 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

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.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

yes, filtered but not pasteurized (France)
