  1. Yes! I think it is a matter for each individual to decide what they want to eat or drink. I personally would check out the farmer and his/her methods of collecting and handling the milk. Know your farmer, know your food! Goes for all food, not just milk.
  2. Imagine how ridiculous that question is especially if it was posed 300, 500 or 1,000 or more years ago. People would have responded what the F!!!!!
  3. Yes, I think we should be allowed to drink whatever kind of milk that we want to. They should not be controlling that.
  4. Yes, please let us drink real milk.
  5. If the milk comes from pastured cows, of course it should be legalized.
  6. The Federal Government should exempt all local produce of family farms from all regulations. Local produce would be defined as produce sold within the state. Family farms would be defined as farms with annual revenues of less than $250,000. Also, farm subsidies should be repurposed to support farmer's markets in every city. ADM and Monsanto do not need or deserve our tax dollars. BTW, the Federal Government did indeed have a program of support for farmer's markets during the last depression.
  7. Yes, it is the healthiest way to get the true essence of milk. Plus, it's the only way my family can digest milk. By stripping it of its digestible enzymes, only then, you suddenly had a problem.
  8. Yes, definitely! It's the only milk I can drink without getting sick!
  9. Raw milk (from grass fed cows, of corse) is the only healthy choice-- No allergic reaction for most of is like with the pasteurized milk and all it's DEAD BACTERIA that release histamine when they die! We should be able to freely choose clean raw milk
  10. Yes, for the health of us all!
