On This Day | Raw Milk a Source of Bacteria
Author

Some of the bacteria are useful, but many of them are decidedly harmful, causing the diseases that are contagious. Many bacteria are carried in milk. This is both food and a home for them. This means that milk needs to be handled carefully so that none of these disease bacteria can get into it. Those who handle milk should not come near persons having a contagious disease, or they are apt to carry some of the disease bacteria into the milk, and so convey it to those who use the milk. It also makes it necessary that the water in which milk cans are washed be guarded for contamination. It requires care in delivering milk to a house where there is sickness.

Why We Chose It

The savvy consumer knows well not only exactly where and their milk comes, but also the people that bring it to them.
