Quoted: Two officers had even infiltrated the farmer’s inner circle, obtaining for themselves samples of his product. Lab tests confirmed their suspicions. It was raw milk. The unpasteurized stuff. Now the time had come to take him down.

Wow, a fake restaurant and an intentionally terrible wine list wins Spectator's "award of excellence". Awesome.

You must be Derek's friend before you can comment on this Fave.Ack! Decisions! Almost makes me wish I was still breast-feeding (more). No argument that's good for her. ... I saw some raw milk at the co-op the other day and wondered about it. I wish you could just buy samples. I wonder what raw milk tastes like. I had raw milk at a friend's dairy in high school, but I don't recall its exact taste (just that it was good).
I've had it recently ... it's good, but it's about 2X as expensive as even really good quality pasteurized milk. We are buying unhomogenized milk from Golden Glen these days (still pasteurized, but has raw milk's texture at least).
Huh, never heard of that. What's the difference between homogenized and pasteurized? And is it like whole milk or do you get a watered down version (like 1%)?
We only drink whole, but unhomogenized milk is available "watered down" for those that want it.
Pasteurized milk is heated, which "kills the baddies (and goodies)".
Homogenized milk is shot through a little nozzle that breaks it down so it doesn't separate. Thus, you have to give unhomogenized milk a good shake before drinking as the cream forms on the top.
