Tag: Raw milk products

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), between 1998 and 2018, there were 202 outbreaks linked to drinking raw milk. These outbreaks highlight why it is crucial to understand what products contain unpasteurized milk, especially since it is not always obvious from the packaging.

According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and similar international bodies, virtually all cream found on supermarket shelves is pasteurized or ultra-pasteurized to eliminate harmful bacteria and ensure public safety. This heat treatment process is a crucial step in modern dairy production, separating store-bought cream from its raw counterparts.
