Hey Ohio, did you know the state’s raw milk ordinance essentially makes it illegal to sell non-pasteurized milk?
“No raw milk retailer shall sell, offer for sale, or expose for sale raw milk to the ultimate consumer…”
We’ve been brought up to believe that milk HAS to be pasteurized or else you’ll get sick. But is that really true? A lot of evidence suggests no, I’d suggest you go Googling if you want to learn more. Obviously, as a vegan I personally don’t want to consume raw milk. I don’t think it’s natural to drink the milk of another animal — NO other species does this besides humans. And no other species drinks milk beyond infancy. But — as a libertarian, I support the political aspect of this fight.
From a political perspective, what business is it of the State to tell you what’s safe to eat and drink? Just last month we saw what Ohio does if you sell food they don’t approve of.
Why not let the State and their “experts” do the thinking and regulating for you? Keep in mind the people determining safe milk vs. unsafe milk are the same ones telling you that every day you should drink 8 glasses of fluoridated water, consume 2-3 servings of fattening, diseased, and tortured meat, use aspartame (rat poison) and saccharin (carcinogen) instead of sugar if you want to lose weight, accept genetically-modified corn as a modern marvel that will save the planet from starvation, consume 3-5 servings of fruits and vegetables sprayed with pesticides, and keep using high-fructose corn syrup because it’s “fine in moderation” and better than natural alternatives like stevia or xylitol. Not a very good foundation for trust here.
To illustrate the utter (or should I say “udder”) ridiculousness of the State’s power over our food, I’d like to share a video that a friend of mine is entering into the Sammy’s Contest. Please watch and rate it so we have a better shot at winning.
Without further ado, I give you “Secret Agent Pam” (also my first theatrical debut):
