Re: what milk to buy?
I would buy whole organic cows milk if you can. Unhomonogized is best if raw isn't an option. Are you sure raw isn't an option? Texas has a lot of raw milk and pretty lax laws.

Re: what milk to buy?
Not trying to hijack, but can someone explain "raw milk" to me. I have seen it, but I don't understand why in my state, people aren't allowed to sell it for human consumption. What are the benefits of raw??
To the OP, Store brand organic is what we do! |

Re: what milk to buy?
i agree-- try to find some raw milk. if not, then whole, unhomogenized organic milk is a good bet. or grass-fed local milk at your store-- we have a couple local labels in my town.
as far as advantages of raw milk, visit http://www.realmilk.com/

Re: what milk to buy?
Here's my order of milk:
Local Organic* Raw Local Organic Gently Pasteurized NonHomoginized Local Organic Gently Pasteurized Homoginized Local Organic UltraPasteurized (Organic Valley is local to *you*) There's a new *grass fed organic humane* brand at Super Target.... I'd drink that I won't drink New Horizon or the Grocery Store brands of organic. It's my understanding that they feed organic grain (cows should get grass) and a little better than factory farms. If nothing else is available - I'd buy my local brand of milk that is rBh free |

Re: what milk to buy?
how is the taste of raw milk? I've never had it before. Does it taste like what the other milks taste like?
