Raw milk products, like raw milk cheese, are those that are made from milk that has not been legally pasteurized. Pasteurized milk represents about 99% of all milk consumed in the US, so that’s where the focus is. With raw milk products, that’s another unknown because when you make something like raw milk cheese, which is one of the only raw milk products you can sell in interstate commerce, there are a lot of processes that go into that. Consumers should feel confident purchasing and consuming pasteurized milk and milk products. However, the FDA is recommending that the dairy industry refrain from selling raw milk and raw milk products produced with milk from cows showing signs of illness.
