and that is relevant how?

>And uncooked vegetables are indeed a large source of food borne illness.

so they are yucky too, after all?

>Rare steak is fine, rare chicken is not.

and that is relevant how?

thank you for your valuable input

Because it demonstrates some raw things are fine, and some raw things kill you? Like... duh?

I mean what are you really arguing here? We eat some raw stuff so that means anything raw, including milk, is perfectly safe to drink?

Just on it's surface that's such an absurd argument that I honestly doubt any human beings on Earth believe that. We're all well aware many raw substances are dangerous.

I'm arguing that if you find "raw" milk gross, then raw fruits and vegetables are gross too. washing them (i.e. splashing them with cold water for a few seconds under the sink) doesn't eradicate the bacteria crawling all over.

I don't understand why do you and the other poster sperg out about raw meat. I never said a damn thing about raw meat. no one eats raw meat, but millions of people drink "raw" milk. we drank "raw" milk for a few thousand years. "raw" milk is just milk.

		and people died of dysentery and cholera and brucellosis and tuberculosis and typhoid and listeria and and anthrax and scarlet fever for those thousands of years. Then, we figured out that bacteria causes those diseases, we can kill that bacteria with a process, and now there's milk that is safe to drink, and milk that is not safe to drink, creating the concept of raw milk and pasteurized milk. raw meat is pink and cooked meat isn't but unfortunately for us, raw milk and pasteurized milk are both white as far as eating raw meat, I ate sushi a few days ago.
