The Land of the Free?
In the U.S. 500,000 people die from smoking each year, 250,000 die from alcohol related causes; the FDA estimates 1 person every 9 years dies from raw milk related causes. Soft raw-milk cheese is illegal. Is this really the land of the free?

What is Soft raw-milk cheese? When would I have ever seen this stuff?
Soft raw-milk cheese is the acme of delight in cheese terms. Brie (the real-thing), Camembert, Pierre-Robert, Muenster and the like are the delicate soft cheeses that have a distinctive deliciousness only achieved at their zenith from raw-milk.
Heck….just made some myself this week using raw milk from Windsor Dairy. While it isn’t Camembert, it IS a nice soft, homemade cream cheese. Yummy on some homemade zucchini bread!
