RAW MILK VS. PASTEURIZED MILK EXPERIENCE - MOLD GROWTH


From:



Step 1. Make observations:
Raw milk is a complete, living food. Pasteurized is dead and non living. Strange things will happen to pasteurized milk if allowed to "grow" in an un refrigerated environment. Raw milk can be grown, as done for centuries to make many types of products, without negative side effects, like mold.

Step 2. Form a hypothesis:
When raw milk and pasteurized milk (organic and conventional) are left at room temperature, bacteria will grow. The environment for bacteria will either allow for mold, bad bacteria, or an unnatural outcomes. Raw milk will become an edible, enjoyable, product safe to consume. Pasteurized milk is become moldy and unsafe to consume.

Step 3. Make a prediction:

Raw milk will become a sour cream or separated cheese-like product (safe to consume and enjoy). Pasteurized milk is become rancid and harmful to consume. Raw milk will become an edible, enjoyable, product safe to consume. Pasteurized milk is become moldy and unsafe to consume.

Step 4. Perform an experiment: Picture Proof
The 5 jars were all filled on the same day. I prefer not to reveal the brand name on the labels but 2 are conventional and 2 are organic. The whole milk is jersey milk with cows on grass. Jars were all sterilized. I tightened all the lids and then backed them off a half turn.

I have done this before and I am absolutely stunned at how little remains of what is labeled " whole " milk. Isn't this blatantly dishonest labeling? It is also consistent that the UHT goes bad fast.

Step 5. Analyze the results of the experiment:
Mold growth/ pictures (mold on lids show an estimate in the qty of mold growth inside the jars).

MOLD GROWTH LEVELS:
Raw Whole Milk: NO MOLD LEVELS
Pasteurized Whole Milk: Medium mold levels
Pasteurized 2% Milk: HIGH mold levels
Pasteurized Organic Whole Milk: Medium mold levels
ULTRA High Temp Pasteurized 2 % Milk: EXTREMELY HIGH mold levels

Step 6. Draw a conclusion:
Drink raw milk. It is a living, bio-diverse perfect food. Drink Organic Pastures Dairy Raw Milk for the best, most delicious raw milk.

THOUGHTS???? Would you want to consume a product that is not going to thrive inside your warm body (like room temperature environment)?

  2. Fascinating! Were the lids sealed tightly or left loose through the experiment and how long did it run for? Thanks for sharing!
