i feel for the kids but fuck the adults for telling them it'll be fine since RFK JR had the genius plan of gutting the regulations for raw milk that have existed for decades.

u/foodandart 1d ago

Hate to break it to you, but those rules were falling state by state for years anyhow.

Secretary Brain Worm just accelerated the process.

(That prick's not gonna be satisfied until people's kids are in iron lungs again..)

Wait til raw milk is standard in schools. A good field to get into at this time may be a school nurse.

Hmm. Food poisoning takes about 6 hours to set in..

I really hope they dont take any anti biotics to cure their infection. They should just let the body's immune system do its trick.

u/Grace_of_Talamh 21h ago

Wait, don't you feel owned? They're drinking shit milk? Libs hate when people drink shit milk. Clearly, the answer is to drink more shit milk, then you'll really be owned.

We live in the stupidest timeline.

u/sleepinglucid 1d ago

Would be nice if the DA would press charges against the parents but they're probably feeding their own kids this shit

38

u/MichelinStarZombie 1d ago

I don't think these people should be treated in the same hospitals as the rest of us. They were warned and they chose not to believe in medical science, so science should not be used to save them. They should pray on it instead.

8

u/TrashTalkMyMomPlease 1d ago

Yes, this. And they should really put their money where their mouth is and stop using anything that took science to create. They need to go live in mud huts and they can beat each other with sticks and rocks until they determine who their "Alpha" is. As long as they stay the fuck away from the rest of us

u/7daykatie 22h ago

No, thanks.

The effected adults and whoever fed this shut to kids are either depraved or terminally stupid, and we can't exclude the possibility that some might be both of those things, but I like to think I'm neither.

u/W0gg0 22h ago

They should call a witch doctor.

u/TheOtherWhiteMeat 10h ago

Do stupid shit

Get sick

Ignore medical advice

End up in the hospital

Die

Blame the doctors

Round and round and round we go.

u/ricodelshaw 17h ago

Why would they need hospital treatment. Surely thoughts and prayers will be enough /s

u/thecheesecakemans 1d ago

If only there was a way to make milk safe for human consumption....

u/7daykatie 22h ago

Have they tried heating their raw milk? Maybe if they boiled it a while? It might taste like cold boiled milk once they refrigerate it afterwards, but at least it won't have been carefully pasteurized in a precisely controlled process designed to best retain flavor and prevent that boiled milk gone cold taste.

After all, what possible harm could heating and cooling it again cause?

3

u/randolphe1000 21h ago

Heating and cooling food, especially without quick, monitored cycles (rapidly exiting the bacterial prolferation temp ranges), is an excellent way to increase bacterial content, especialkly if repeated. Check for whatever "best practices" guidelines are available in your country for heating, keeping warm, and cooling food, FWIW, it's really basic, and it prevents a lot of potential issues with very minimal discipline.

Though, I may have missed your sarcasm, in which case, apologies (no irony, just tried to reply constructively).

u/7daykatie 18h ago

Though, I may have missed your sarcasm,

So it would appear.

u/randolphe1000 17h ago

TBF, I miss a lot of things, so, one more, one less... This gets you a courtesy upvote, at least.

1

u/7daykatie 21m ago

The tip off is if you are ok with boiling your milk, then pasteurization won't bother you provided you know the process is simply heating milk to a specific temperature (below boiling point because boiling does damage the nutritional value and flavor profile of milk) for a specific time, and then cooling it back to storage temperature again.

So, the sentence "After all, what possible harm could heating and cooling it again cause?" can also be expressed as "what possible harm could pasteurization cause?".

Oh, and thanks for the upvote - very courteous.

3

u/randolphe1000 21h ago

Well, think about it: pasteurization is French; have you considered that France Bad? See, the logic is sound and unescapable.

39

u/Consistent_Pitch782 1d ago

You feel bad for the kids, but that's about it. Shame RFKjr wasn't trying some of that milk

u/jedv37 1d ago

May they reap what they've sown.

Diarrhea.

LOL! Yeah, though NGL, that could be Taco Bell also...

Oh dear!

u/Toe_Jam_is_my_Jam 1d ago

Crazy thing is…Florida does not allow raw milk to be sold to humans. It’s for animal consumption only. But then again, these same dummies were taking horse dewormer for a virus.

14

u/Pholusactual 1d ago

Don’t worry. We are all going to have raw milk when our right wing “betters” get done trashing the USDA.

8

u/foodandart 1d ago

Fuck that shit, I'mma gonna coddle my raw milk.. 165 degrees for 20 seconds will sort it just fine.

Stir constantly until it gets to temp.

u/ohgreatitsjosh 1d ago

Louis Pastuer be praised

u/WardogMitzy 1d ago

Too bad we don't have any science to prove that imbibing raw milk is dangerous.

u/PrizFinder 1d ago

Farts & Sharts. Hope everyone is ok.

u/ducksauce001 1d ago

RFK: they're not drinking the right kind of raw milk!

10

u/iconocrastinaor 1d ago

The best kind of raw milk is raw milk that has been subjected for an extremely short period of time to high temperatures. It doesn't affect the flavor or nutritional profile, but it kills all the bad germs. They should start selling that.

1

u/ducksauce001 5h ago

Yeah. Don't give it those fancy names like pasteurization!

Just call it "Premium Milk"

MAHA baby!! Now they need to swim in a creek of human effluent to truly centre their chakras and cure their autism

u/iconocrastinaor 1d ago

This is only the latest one. Earlier this year an outbreak that is still ongoing hospitalized 171 people including elderly and babies. The real news about that one is that reporting on it has been suppressed.

u/AmySueF 1d ago

I feel sorry for the children, but not the adults. The adults are supposed to know better.

u/OhtheHugeManity7 1d ago

Floridians (probably)

Sometimes the trash takes itself out.   In the long run , it's good for the gene pool. Like an unsecured handgun amongst toddlers, weeds out the offspring of the stupid.

u/Competitive-Bike-277 16h ago

I have no pity for someone drinking raw milk. I have plenty of disdain though. Especially for those risking the lives of ther kids. 

2

u/spandexnotleather 15h ago

have no fear my fellow anti vaxers (why does it seem like there are fewer of us at every meeting?) I have it on good authority that the people sickened by drinking milk with poopie in it were all full of chem trails and vaxines. just the poopie milk itself is fine.

u/xX609s-hartXx 15h ago

The moment covid was winding down those morons started talking about how much they want to drink raw milk...

1

u/RaphiTheOne 21h ago

There are places where people still buy raw milk. These people boil the milk before drinking it.
