Todays educational freebie: on the topic of cows milk. (So that people can stop freaking out about me being a wild death-risking hippy... I know the homebirth put a few people on edge.) MILK: Pasteurised means heated up really high really quick to kill bacteria. Louis Pasteur was a scientist who studied microbial infection. Homogenised means sprayed at high pressure through a sieve to break up little fatty lumps and spread them evenly through. Homo = same, homogenous = same all the way through = no creamy blobs. Recent scares in the media: are referring to illness caused by unpasteurised milk. So, no, Im not going to get salmonella from drinking unhomogenised milk, and yes, its perfectly legal for shops to sell it. The cream is on top. Its quite nice, you should try it.
