        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.

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

                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.

          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.

        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.

        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.

                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!

          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).

    I think the best redirect would be to convince them to “self-pasteurize” their milk. You can make an entire ecosystem of grift products on the best home pasteurizers to avoid harmful toxins or whatever the current buzzword is.

        But you could also use it to separate them from their money, which is an even greater good.
        Also, it potentially keeps the people in their care who have no agency from getting listeria, which is up there with lining your pockets via virtuous con artistry in terms of moral virtue.

        You incorrectly assume the grift products have to actually do anything. Just give them a few lights and a little fan at the back which spins for a few minutes to make it sound like it’s doing anything. Can be super cheap to make, it doesn’t even need a heating element!

    I mean, we should have an image of the Germans who applied it to milk, pretty sure Pasteur did it for the booze and some other dudes were like “hey bro we did that same technique on milk and now way less babies die.”

      Thank you for this! At least according to the Wikipedia article you’re right, and Pasteur invented the technique for wine. Beer came soon after, by others, but it was a long time until it was used on milk.

      I’ve heard this! Apparently, he was researching why beer was spoiling, and he had done no research on milk whatsoever.

        It was the bloodiest battle that the world ever saw

        With civilians looking on in total awe

        The fight raged on for a century

        Many lives were claimed but eventually

        The champion stood, the rest saw their better

        Among other things. TB was one of the main reasons we started pasteurizing milk in the first place.

    So you know the “is this toothbrush approved by the dental association of America” line from Home Alone (approximate transcription)

    Raw milk is a disease vector for H5N1 right now, and as been for most of the year.

    https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2405371. (Location for the sick worker in the article: Texas)

    Why it doesn’t matter so much for those of us not working directly with cows is pasteurization. In my household, we’ve since switched to ultra pasteurized in the cases we’ve not been doing that already, just to play safest.

    The more humans that catch H5N1, the more likely it is to take and make a vector out of humans.

    To be fair, it is often good to avoid processing your food. However this does not include the cleaning aspect of that food. Would you suddenly stop washing your fruits and vegetables? Flashing a little heat on the milk for safety is fine. It doesn’t create the milk equivalent of beef jerky or a ritz cracker. If you’ve ever spent any time in a milking barn, among cows, or seen the milking process you might not even drink milk after. You’ll want bacteria and virus death in your milk.

    But wait, Zeph, surely this process is only effective for bacteria, we’ve always been taught that the same means of death for bacteria don’t typically work on viruses. (Antibiotics). Pasteurization is it’s own thing.
