I used to get illegal raw milk delivered in the US. I don't think it should be legal for reasons mentioned in the article (poison risk). There are enough alternatives now that prohibition works.
Counterarguments? Is there a big need for dairy milk if, say, oat milk or something else can provide the calcium and other vital nutrients Americans usually get from milk?
- barry-cotter 5y agoOat milk isn’t milk. People don’t want to drink liquidised, filtered and treated oats with added water. They want milk. If you just want something that has some vague similarity to milk that’s cool. If other people want milk then suggesting that something that doesn’t taste like milk, barely looks like milk and has completely different mouthfeel, behavior when cooked and macronutrient profile isn’t very helpful.
- bawolff 5y ago? The obvious alternative is not oat milk but pasturized milk.
- tobylane 5y agoOat milk is great as milk, especially if you’re having porridge. The enriched oat milk I get has vitamins but not calcium. My dad can tell the difference between oat and lactose free dairy milks in tea, so he has both in a day.
