In addition to milk’s well-documented legacy of something called white supremacy killing and maiming Person of Color™, in its raw form it’s also an existential threat to Public Health™ more broadly.
Our benevolent FDA mommies have thankfully been on the case for several decades now ensuring that Americans don’t poison themselves with pure, beneficial microbe-rich dairy products.
Unfortunately, a raw milk domestic terrorist recently tapped to craft raw milk policy under the Trump regime threatens to undo all of that saintlike work.
Via The Guardian (emphasis added):
“Mark McAfee, a California raw milk producer whose products have been recalled several times recently due to bird flu contamination, said he has been approached by Robert F Kennedy Jr’s team to guide the upcoming administration on raw milk policy.
McAfee, whose dairy products were recalled after state officials detected bird flu virus in milk samples, said that the transition team for Kennedy, the nominee to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, asked him to apply for a position advising on raw milk policy and standards development. The idea, he told the Guardian, would be to create a “raw milk ordinance”, mirroring the existing federal “standard milk ordinance”.
Kennedy is a notable fan of raw, or unpasteurized, milk, including McAfee’s products. If confirmed, he has said he would work to remove restrictions on raw milk, which the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have so far advised against consuming.” . .

When was the term "raw milk" first coined or used? I suspect when the push for pasteurization first started. It shouldn't be called raw milk, it should be just milk. Pasteurized milk should be called dead milk if anything. Pasteurization ruins milk.
