unpasteurized milk
Straight from cows
Unpasteurized milk is milk that hasn't been heat-treated to kill bacteria—also called raw milk.
Advocates claim it tastes better and retains nutrients destroyed by pasteurization, while health authorities warn of risks from pathogens like salmonella and E. coli.
Its sale is restricted or banned in many jurisdictions: She drives to a farm outside the city to buy unpasteurized milk.
