    Speaking of raw milk, bird flu has just been disovered in it. Buckle up, the next pandemic is coming. Maybe it will go down in history as the MAGA flu. Or Trumps.

      Ok, but have you had raw milk Camembert? That’s probably the one thing from the list where you guys should be more lax.

        In fairness, cheese from france is probably safer raw because they don’t have as many superfarms that are as prone to spreading diseases like bird flu

          There’s also the fact that they take steps to hinder bad bacteria. While nurturing the good bacteria that makes their cheese. It’s not like they just throw raw milk into a vat and pull out cheese.

        Raw milk for cheese isn’t quite as big of deal as enthusiasts make it out to be. It’s more the homogenization process that destroys milk for cheese than pasteurization. I’ve had alot of success mixing pasteurized skim milk and pasteurized heavy Cream to the ratio I want to make various cheeses. Using Homogenized milk though nearly always failed or gave extremely low yields for me though.
