    It is relevant. The quality of the food chain and regulations where you live play a huge role in that particular society’s feel about raw products.

    OK, you got a point there.

    For the other part, you can trust me, that in a refrigerator milk will get bad after 3-4 days. If you cool it at about 2-3°C it is good for longer time(obviously), but I can’t tell how long exactly, because the milk never gets that old. As for Quality its quite interesting, that you make assumptions about it without knowing anything. I can assure you, that the milk has good quality. It gets tested every 2 days in terms of fat, germs, protein, and SCC and all of those parameters are always good.

      And meat goes bad in the fridge after only a few more days but I don’t see you having a meltdown over butcher shops existing.

      In reality people consume raw milk all the time, it’s just some countries with absolutely garbage consumer protections where you should avoid drinking it.

        1. They’re not really having a meltdown
        2. Meat is frequently bought in single meal/single serving amounts, whereas milk is frequently bought in bulk/multiple-serving amounts. Storing milk is a bigger deal than storing meat, because you much more frequently have leftover milk than leftover raw meat. The two aren’t really comparable.

          Do you go to the store to buy meat every meal?

          Like do you only purchase a single serving of meat every time?

          Wtf you guys smoking lmao?

          You guys are trying so hard to be right you don’t even realize just how dumb it makes you look.

          When I get milk I get a few cartons of UHT milk and then one bottle or two of raw milk that I drink first because I’m not a fucking idiot.

            I mean, I buy meat a couple pounds at a time, and cook it all at once. The leftovers usually get me most of the way through the week, because I’m usually just cooking for myself. A half gallon of the ultra pasteurized milk will usually last me three or four weeks. Raw milk would be absolutely wasted on me, there’s no way I could get through even a small amount before it spoils. I don’t know why you’re getting so bent out of shape by a take that essentially boils down to “people go through meat faster than milk”, it’s not exactly a hot take.
