Farm Question 3/26/2015
Posted by Jerry Hicks at 2015-03-26 07:15:51
Is the following statement true or false: Certified milk is commonly recommended for infants and invalids?

Back in the 1930's.......I'd say "true".

Ummmm... what is "certified mild"?

Speaking of milk, back about 2 or 3 years ago, didn't some governmental agency spend over $1 million in investigating an Amish farmer who had been selling raw milk? I also seem to remember that since 1946, there have only been about 10 cases of severe illness caused by raw milk. Perhaps someone will remember this better than I and post comments. For what it's worth, I was raised on raw milk, have drunk some since then, and am still alive. Am I living on borrowed time? LOL

True.


And, Carl, that is true as well. For a while there were several witch hunts going on of USDA law enforcement looking for people selling raw milk. I know here in Kentucky for a while they were trying to find ways of hitting people who were doing cow shares. It may still be the case and they just keep it quiet. I've always preferred raw milk, but I no longer have the time to keep a milk cow.
