Why is this normal in Europe, but considered risky in the US?
Some of the tastiest soft cheeses are made from raw milk, but they also kill a number of people each year. It's the French answer to Fugu, if you will.
I put raw cream in my coffee daily, but don’t have the balls to drink raw milk. That said, it makes fantastic yogurt. I don’t really understand the concept of illegal raw milk though. Why can’t people consume raw milk if they want? If anything, make it illegal to feed to children (except of course, raw breast milk!!)
> a bill that makes it legal to drink (but not sell) Woah it was illegal to drink! Even if you produced it from your own cow/goat etc? Personally I have no desired to drink raw milk, but I do hope raw milk cheese becomes more common/legal in the US.
I've met multiple times with state legislators in Michigan about an open data bill a group of us are trying to get passed. The irony is hackers or state residents wouldn't be the biggest beneficiary's. It would be legislators and their staffs. It is simply astounding how often bad decisions by legislators aren't a reflection of their poor judgement but simply poor data. Lobbyists can often times lie without being cal…

> “There definitely shouldn’t be a law against allowing people to do what they want within the framework of the rule of law,” McGeehan told WSAZ. Well, technically true. Making operating within the law illegal would certainly be problematic.

Honestly, I suspect this kind of thing happens as a result of a diet devoid of microbial life and non-denatured proteins. I used to get not full on sick, but pretty sick after eating raw or partially raw meat. You may think it's crazy, but I just continued doing it and eventually stopped getting diarrhea and cramps. David Blaine (I think) talked about a similar effect from when he practiced swallowing live frogs. He…

This kills some people.
Health advice isn't about you, it's about everyone. See also: wearing a mask during a pandemic.

Sensitivities do not always decrease with exposure, so I’m not sure if I’d advocate getting ill frequently with the expectation of improvement.

Why were you eating raw meat, may I ask?
