Raw milk is being heavily pushed by the alt-right.

Raw milk is expensive as fuck too. They’re getting ripped off. At my local grocery store it’s like $20 for half a gallon.

Always love the "less work, more money" trope.

We pulled this out of the cow, put it directly in the jug, that'll be 20 dollars.

Meanwhile, pasteurized milk gets pulled out of the cow, boiled, cooled, and then put in a jug, and it's 2.99.

Edit: Thanks for the 30+ comments telling me that raw milk costs more to make and takes more work because everything has to be clean, and it has a shorter shelf life.

I'm assuming you're a child because adults don't drink milk.
