 There is no logic in government gatekeeping food, but it isn't like people werent getting really fucking sick from the raw milk at the time. Cleaner manufacturing can solve that today, but just disregarding the problem is ridiculous. Times and technology change, but you're still taking a greater risk.

That's fine if you accept that. Denying the risk is not fine in my opinion.
