MODERATORS
On the condition that they disclosed the milk as raw, hard disagree.
Freedom means freedom to choose.
You can order raw or undercooked foods at a restaurant, there’s a small warning on the menu, and if you suffer any adverse affects from the decision the consequences are fully your own to bear - not the restaurant’s.
The farm shouldn’t have the responsibility of auditing peoples’ intentions with the product either. For all they know, it could have been puechased with the intent of making raw milk cheese.
They lied about they tests they were performing on it and knowingly (illegally) sold it for human consumption, per the article. And the parent has text messages showing the owner knew it was for a young child.
You can be licensed and sell raw milk, just with warnings...
This farm was unlicensed and not disclosing that.
Like, you can open a restaurant, but you have to be licensed.
If you're unlicensed and presenting yourself as an actual restaurant and get people sick...
it contains E. Colo
I don't how how normal that is, but sounds pretty "not fit for consumption"
Gonna have to soft disagree with your hard disagree. "A small warning on the menu"? Like it's freedom to let kids take LSD as long as 'not for minors' is printed on the tab?
Its a public health health concern.
Now, undercooked burger and you get food poisoning? Well, hopefully you learned your lesson.
Raw milk hospitalizes infants? Sorry, "we listed the risk on our website" doesn't cut it.
"Maybe they were making raw milk cheese as a hobby?" Sure, you should have to sign paperwork that plainly and boldly outlines the risk of misuse.
Before you say it's a slippery slope and youd need to sign a waiver to buy bleach, the Secretary of Health is pushing this dangerous product on people, whereas no one in the government is recommending injecting bleach to cure viru— uh, nevermind, thats a bad example.
