Thank you for this exposé. I hear that there are dangers, which I have been willing to risk, but having them outlined in detail is a great service... God bless.

AMAZING info I will pass along to others for sure. Thank you so much. We are drinking RAW milk exclusively making our own butter and yogurt from it and cheese. It is so easy as Raw milk naturally makes these things depending on where it is stored and how it is treated (like with probiotics, set on counter in warmth, covered and made in instapot (Yogurt) and never spoils! Thank you "Last Bastion Homestead for introducing us to liquid gold for our health, SHARON AND ROBYN

I have always loved the humorous way you write and also the research behind your writing. The bugs sound awful, but as you pointed out, the more common newsworthy dangers are lettuce and chicken nuggets.

I caught the shout out to the crazy uncle-in-law I met. Also the brucellosis that made your sister so sick in high school. The main point, of course, is raw milk is worth the (well-researched) risk.

Of course one of the sisters contracted the Bruce! I did read that it is still a problem in developing countries, but here in the Continental US it is basically non existent.
