That is a spurious news source. Here is a more reputable one (relatively speaking). - West Virginia lawmakers celebrate raw milk, deny being sickened by it[^]

Yes, but no way will I dare drink unpasteurized milk! I will leave to the bright politicians who legalized raw milk. And I wish them the best of luck. :-D

Why would anyone want to legalize it? What's the driving reason behind it, do you know?

Remember, this is West Virgina, not to be confused with Virginia. Consider this quote (extracted from the text) by one of their brilliant lawmakers: "There definitely shouldn’t be a law against allowing people to do what they want within the framework of the rule of law . . .” That should explain everything.

Actually, having lived in WV, I assure you that those insisting on this were about as unlike hippies as one could imagine. WV is primarily composed of good solid conservative bigots - like you'd find in most of the low population states (and Texass). The reason the northern coastal states have large population densities is people trying to get away from the inbred masses and they ran out of running room.

I used to drink raw milk, when I was a child...but if someone not used to it, it is very heavy (full of fat), so I can imagine that...
Skipper: We'll fix it. Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this? Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I'm afraid you run risks other than just full bodied milk, if you drink it raw. Typhoid Mary infected more than 50 people with typhus (three died) through raw milk, before pasteurization became common practice. Milk is an ideal carrier for various pathogens.

As a child in the early 1960s I lived in a hostel where we were served raw milk. In the rural parts where we were, pasteurization was still not common. Yes, I survived, but we seemed to develop digestive tract infections more commonly than kids today. Why run the risk of some serious tummy ailments?

I didn't say that I would do it today or to my kids, but than, that was the only milk we had (lived in a farm outside of everything)...I can't remember people got ill or died of it, but I was only a kid...

That's the key difference. Farmers were not pumping their cows full of steroids and hormones like they do today. However, even today, there are lot of small farms around where I live that sell raw milk. It's no big deal. But these farmers don't shoot their cows up. :^)

I'm afraid you are going off-topic. The issue is whether you should pasteurize milk to get rid of pathogens, like undesirable bacteria. Hormones and antibiotics are a separate issue that has nothing to do with pasteurization.

Hormones and steroids add to those "certain microorganisms, that can produce disease."
