[AT] Restriction on selling raw milk...JD "B"

[David Bruce]

I'm with Charlie here.  I have no issue with a farmer selling raw milk 
to someone who understands what they are buying.  To me that is far from 
grabbing a gallon jug from the supermarket.  It's been years but I also 
drank raw milk, ate home churned butter and had country ham from hogs my 
grandpa raised, slaughtered and then cured the hams.

There is a place for pasteurized milk, USDA inspections and the like - 
there also should be a place for the firmer things as well.
