Cows Getting Busted by the Feds
For Dana Goodyear’s piece on raw milk in this week’s issue, Chris Buck photographed two models posing as F.D.A. agents on an organic dairy farm in Fresno, California.
How do you feel about raw milk?
It usually puts me on guard when I hear people speak with a religious fervor about something that’s, well, not religious. I feel like the person is looking to sell me something I don’t want or need. But our host at Organic Pastures in Fresno, California, Mark McAfee, is a good salesman, and, like all good salesmen, you end up wanting to buy from him. He spoke about the taste quality and the health benefits of raw milk to my assistant, our two models, and myself for most of the time that he had us within earshot, and I ended up asking him where I could get it in New York State (only directly from two farms upstate, apparently). From reading Dana Goodyear’s piece and hearing out Mr. McAfee, my take is that now is a good time for most states to reëvaluate the real dangers and benefits of raw-milk production.

The absurdity of humanity.

The government needs to stay the heck out of our food buying decisions-it’s ridiculous that I have to go over the state line for raw milk.

I grew up on a farm and had to drink raw milk, so my answer is an informed one: YUK!

Drink raw milk if you want (enjoy whatever snake oil appeals). I’m more concerned that every american have health insurance.

Raw milk also has a lot of health risks associated with it. Its a commons sourceof listeria outbreaks, for instance.

Drinking raw milk is like eating chocolate. It’s unbelievably rich. People should be aware of the risks but the milk shouldn’t be banned.

It’s a waste of time for both parties: There are so many other issues that citizens of the U.S. should be focusing on—same with the FBI.
