    I hadn’t heard of this. I was shocked to find out that unpasteurised milk could be sold to begin with, didn’t expect a second shock in the comments. Think I’m going to go back to just not touching social media for a while.

      I’m surprised it can be sold in stores alongside regular milk. Raw milk doesn’t last long because of the lack of pasteurization, the logistics of constant replacement due to the lack of shelf time is insane. There’s no way places can be making money simply due to product loss as it goes bad before being sold.

      Unless the farms selling it to the stores are lying about expiration dates due to lack of adequate regulations.

        Maybe they end up selling enough. I wonder the same thing about the snowfox sushi sold in grocery stores. They have a shelf life of 1 day and the shelves are always full even before the store closes. They can either break even or they are running at a high loss.

        Also, I don’t know if the raw milk is sold in regular grocery stores. I have never seen one.
