I have completed a specialization in biotechnology and work at a dairy farm which does not use recombinant bovine somatotrophin. I do not see this as a clash of beliefs, there is no inner struggle. organic and biotech live happily side by side inside me. if you don't like it bite me. however don't be stupid. my intolerance is great when it comes to anything I view as stupidity. in my world there are stupid questions and furthermore you can say something that makes you deserve to beated with a wooden implement. I'm not saying I am never stupid. I'm stupid a lot. however I rely on other to beat me for it and everyone should expect the same. a lot of things many people view as polar opposite I examine and I see no problem with either. so today while I was working at the aforementioned dairy farm, a woman came in who is a menance to herself and to her children. a lot of weirdos come in. lots of people who don't speak english who believe is some pretty wild healing methods, whatever I don't care. but don't bitch about food science on my watch. do not take internet sites run by idiots seriously. alright? ok?
so if you're going to bitch about the evils of pasteurization I would like you to read up on it. to read peer-reviewed in reputable journals. I would like you to inject yourself with the tuberculosis virus and eat all of your food raw. then you may bitch, a little.
Pasteurization is fabulous. Food born diseases kill at least 5 million children each year. One out of 3 people in the us contracts one each year. your food is not safe or unsafe. be smart. the FDA and government in general is not trying to kill you or lie to you (except for certain people who don't know what constitutes a war and are also stupid). Milk is good for you. Cows like to be milked. no we don't sell veal. and no I don't have problem with eating baby animals. Cows most likely wouldn't exist if they hadn't been domesticated. natural is a ridiculous word. really ponder what natural means and if the answer is easy you're not doing it right. There are hormones in most everything except rocks. eat rocks. if you want your children to grow up healthy don't be stupid and do things like feed them raw milk and NOT VACCINATE them for fear of some unknown consequence of doing so. The consequence fo not doing so is biting you in the ass right now. may your children not die because of your stupidity. if you want your children to be healthy let them play outside without shoes, get dirty, eat some dirt, play with a farm animal and then not wash their hands immediately. Feed them wholesome food in a way that doesn't give them an eating disorder. teach them where food comes from. Don't eat too many meals out of boxes. grow your own food as much as you can. don't smoke. support people who do things the way you want them done.
if you come to my dear dairy farm do so because you like me. you like ice cream. because you like family farms. because you like tradition. you like to buy your food at the source. because you like people who treat their animals well. not because you are ignorant and don't even know what"organic" means though you are searching for it. know your food laws if you care. (You can not have animals in herbivore feed don't even ask me...)
