I didn't realise you could get unpasteurised milk, I thought it had to be done to remove all the diseases/bacteria that can come from milk? Where do you buy it from?

It does contain bacteria of course but as a healthy adult male my immune system doesn't have much difficulty with it. Furthermore the pasturisation process kills all the good bacteria and good nutrients fromthe milk. You can buy it online straight from the farms or turn up to a farm and they'll sell it to you.

I go to a local farmer's Market to get it where I am.

There is no evidence to prove that unpasturised milk is a potential health hazard.

I would think you could get direct from a dairy farmer, if you're on friendly terms. As far as I know it's illegal to sell unpasturised milk in shops in England and Wales, not sure about Scotland though.
 
Honestly I never checked (ever) but all I know is I like blue topped milk, green top tastes too watery, red is too thick.
Weird eh :p
 
Greeeen top milk all the way. Red if there's no green left though. Honestly cant taste the difference.
 
I used to be only full fat all the time but my wife has since turned me to the dark side of semi skimmed. Couldnt go back to full fat now!
 
Full fat. I bought 2 litres of semi-skimmed a week ago, my son whinged about drinking it, and I avoided Bran Flakes for the whole time it was in the fridge :D

I just can't face the thought of eating cereal on a morning with semi-skimmed or skimmed milk on. It'd be like dying a little bit.
 
Yeah cereal and skimmed is grim, might as well pour tap water on it, and yes ive done that before :O
