A newborn baby has died in New Mexico from a Listeria infection that state health officials say was likely contracted from raw (unpasteurized) milk that the baby’s mother drank during pregnancy.

      Having toured a few dairy plants in Missouri while job hunting a few years back, the pasteurization is doing some really heavy lifting. Very concerned about hormones in milk. But not so much about open vat homogenizers in excessively damp rooms or cleaning the road grime out of the hoses on trailer trucks bringing the milk in. Give it quick 48hr incubation on TSA and call it good. “Milk expires too fast to bother with any other testing” Wild the F in FDA is apparently the least fucks given part. “Post in notes in the room where they’re milling stainless steel down for stethoscope bodies?! Those could be uncontrolled documents!”
