There is no raw milk, cottage cheese, ect. In this area (urban). I’m using low fat cottage cheese, skim milk, low fat cheese, & low fat sour cream. Is this acceptable?
Hi, J. If you can’t get raw (which I can’t either), then organic is a good second choice. The lower fats are a better choice than the full fatted options. If you can’t get (or afford) the organic, then go with the best offerings of what you can get, and opt for the lower fats.
There is an extensive article in this morning’s Arizona Republic newspaper on the dangers of drinking raw milk and the huge outbreak of illness from raw milk including E.Coli. I think I’ll stick with pasturized, not the ultrahigh heat type.
Hi, jlinville. The best dairy is organic pasture-raised or grass-fed, or at least organic – and of course, fortified. Low-fat is fine, but we don’t generally recommend skim milk, as the fat-removal process is associated with undesirable chemical processes.
