Raw Milk

Does anyone know if raw milk and/or raw milk products can be purchased in Lakeside or nearby?

Yes they can.

Here - go right to the source! From Juan's blog.
They want to bring the cow and the booze to Lake Chapala Society - which I find to be somewhat hilarious.

I got brucellosis from unpasteurized milk here so be my guest but I am not the one that will tell you where to get it or find it. The cows here are not vaccinated or check so you are on your own, good luck with unpasteurized. By the way I am French and so I had plenty of unpaseurized cheees in my life but here I stay away from it.

Actually - I feel the same way about unpasteurized. Maybe the Tequila negates the potential risks? I don't think it is Tequila, but rather Aquardiente - sugar cane liquor.

here ya go-direct from the source add some alcohol and chocolat and ya should avoid the dreaded brucellosis. it's called a parajete and there's lotsa places you can indulge in these any morning around here.



whoops i dint look at jaunrays link which got more detail. where he went was a lot more spotless than the place we went in jocotepec as well, but there were old trashed sofas ta sit on quite comfortably. it was a sunday and whole families were there,even some cops.

Pajarete.

details....

We do this a least once a month, usually a Sunday, and there are lots of places.

When you arrive after settling in just ask around for a cow farm. I would call it a dairy farm but that would be a stretch. They will sell you milk.

Glad you mentioned this. I will do a bit or research on this. I have also consumed quite a bit of french cheese made from raw milk.

You might not take this as gospel, but if you look in the cow's ear and see a blue tattoo with numbers, she has been vaccinated. If you look in her ear and see a gold earring - well that is just plain weird.

I believe I have a good resource to find out about this. If I learn anything helpful, I will post it.

A commercial farm would be safer probably than a guy who has a few cows...maybe.

In Dairy farming it all depends on how clean you are. I have seen bad large dairies and bad home dairies. Is it clean tell you lots at least up north.

Please don't use raw milk it .It is very dangerous and can carry brucellosis along wih tuberculosis ( not a well klown fact that mexico has alot of cases). All can be carried by cows , sheep and goats .You can check what I have said on the US CDC site .I caught brucellosis from a rare steak two years ago (a lot of pain and money).

some of us run with scissors and if we add enough chocolat and cane alcohol to the milk we'll be fine.
according to a site i read you did not catch the bacteria from eating a steak because the bacteria is not in the muscle fibre.

just because you did not catch anything for the times you drank it does not mean you will not get it. I ate unpasteurized products for the first 25 years of my life and every time I go home and did not get brucelosis until I was in my 50´s.
By the way I also got TB when I was 8 so do not think you are immune because you put alcohol or chocolate in the milk.

By the way I got TB along with a cousin and an aunt from my grand-parents ´s cook and she got TB from contaminated raw milk , she was a drunk and always had some rum in her milk..so much for alcohol protecting you.

Brucellosis is carried by cows not not dirty dairies. It is not a cleanliness issue but an inoculation issue. Mexican cows are NOT inoculated like the cows in the USA and Canada. Chocolate and alcohol have absolutely zero bearing on the disease. Maybe straws in your nose works, but I doubt it.

i was told by a very skilled doctor that straws in the nose cures just about anything. it has been suggested that the new england journal of medicine and lancet do a study on my body when it is dearly departed.-SNORK!

Straws??? I thought that was your braided nose hairs........

they're inside the straws. kind of a fashion statement

You completely missed the point. If they care enough to keep it clean I think it is more likely they care to do the other things right. I use to babysit dairies when folks use to go to the state fair. An unforgettable job I assure you but I did see many dairies and cows. Clean does tell you something in my book.

Geeesh.......the original OP simply asked if raw milk was available. The answer was given the next post down. Now we will have a 10 page symposium on the pros and cons of raw milk????


Jajaja......you people crack me up.

Pedro, this is a case of what you don't know can kill you. You are totally wrong about Brucellosis.

Please read the following link. Especially the symptoms. It is a terrible disease, but it can be treated.Everybody please read this. It is used in bio-warfare. And I got it in Ajijic. Others in Ajijic have it. Stay away from rare beef, especially beef from Northern Mexico, i.e., Durango. The only certified American beef is from Costco. Walmart sells only Mexican meats.
