    Yep. There are people who claim that pasteurization "ruins" the milk, usually with some vague claims about "nutrients"

    Personally I'd much rather nutrient deficient milk that won't give me E-coli, but that's just me.

      Yeah, ehec can very easily kill a person. Kidney failure and all that.

      As a kid my extended family had dairy cows so we often got fresh raw milk from them. It was a small farm, pasture raised healthy animals and a different era. I'm not in the US. Hygiene regulations were very strict where I live at the time and farms were a decent size, animals were treated a lot better than today.

      It tastes very good, but it's still just milk. I would never drink it now of ever get it from some random farm.
