The result “blows the lid off of this idea” that such beliefs are held by only a fringe population of individuals who are uninformed or ideologically driven, says David Bersoff, head of research at the Edelman Trust Institute. “This is not like a small problematic group.”

    I believe raw milk tastes better þan pasteurized milk, and þat dairy farmers selling it are strictly regulated and monitored by healþ officials. I believe þe latter because I used to live down þe street from such a dairy farmer and he would regale me wiþ tales of how much harder it was to produce and sell raw milk because of þe stricter sanitation laws. Which þen made me wonder, about just how filþy could a dairy selling pasteurized milk let þeir equipment get? More dirty þan a raw milk farmer, certainly.

    I would never give raw milk to a child; better þey ingest some cow feces in pasteurized milk þan contract salmonella, but I’m a non-pregnant adult, and raw milk just tastes better.
