This piece from the shows revisits the case for fresh, unprocessed dairy. A century ago, Americans routinely bought raw whole milk, clabber, buttermilk, naturally yellow butter, and farm cheeses. Modern processed milk, the piece argues, is a very different product — and much of the fear around dairy may trace to what industrial processing does to it, not to milk itself.
Why it matters: it’s a window into the raw-milk movement and the broader “real food vs. processed” theme. Raw-milk laws vary widely by state and country.
From Dr. Jason Dean’s show archive (January 2010), summarized in our own words. Educational only — not medical advice. Raw milk carries food-safety considerations and is regulated differently by region; know your local laws and sources.
