You must have a very thrifty metabolism then. I have a friend who eats

nothing but white pasta and pizza all day long (and entire pizzas at

that) and maintains a six-pack year round.

I recall reading something about this in New

Scientist. IIRC, the older salmon females chose hte

less agressive males, and the younger females chose

the more agressive. Could have something to do with

learning that the agressive ones hurt them, so the

second time around, they went for the more passive

ones!

Waitaminnit. I live in salmon country, and if memory and tradition

suffice, salmon spawn and then die. There is no " second time around. "

Am I nuts? (Don't answer that.)

You are correct. From

http://www.thecontentwell.com/Fish_Game/Trout/Trout_Spawning.html:

" Salmonid spawning habits vary greatly among species. Most spawn in

fall, but some like the rainbow trout, spawn in spring. Trout, char,

grayling and Atlantic salmon live to spawn several times, but Pacific

salmon spawn only once, then die. "

I can be forgiven, perhaps, because I live in the Pacific NW, where the

salmon most certainly die in huge thrashing numbers, or did, at the end

of spawn.

Perhaps it's something to do with hormones, older fish having more

testosterone and searching for the balance.

Only cause you haven't tried 100% grass-fed raw butter. If you ever

get a chance, try eating some off the spoon.

Jo,

I'm not going to bother testing myself because the potential for

placebo effect, but I guess this must only be true for some people

versus others. I can drink cream by the glass, and it's filling

after a certain point, but no more filling than whipped cream and

berries for me (of course taking into consideration the air in the

whipped cream).

I never buy raw cheese in a store except parmesano reggiano... but the cost

is outrageous, and I can save more than half the price by buying a wheel from a

farmer.

How a cheese tastes and its texture is primarily a function of the individual

cheese and the skill of the cheese-maker. By the by, raw cheese *does* taste

better, especially to people who eat lots of cheese, and high quality cheese.

But the taste is secondary to the point that raw cheese is highly beneficial

to health, whereas pasteurized cheese is not.

Oh yeah, and not to mention most or many commercial raw cheeses aren't raw at

all, but are just pasteurized at a temp lower than " pastuerization "

temperature.

This isn't something that can be evaluated by tasting one cheese or one kind of

cheese. What I mean by that is that there is no way to say raw milk or raw cream

cheeses are " coarser " - just that one cheese is coarser than another cheese. I

seek out raw cheeses on principle, but as my " cheese palate " gets more and more

developed, I'm beginning to be able to tell the difference between pasteurized

and raw milk cheeses, sometimes. BUT....

A great pasteurized cheese will still taste better than a mediocre raw milk

cheese. You have to compare apples to apples. There are also different methods

of pasteurization used in cheesemaking, and that will have an impact on the

taste and texture too. It's complex. Taste is not the only consideration (IMO

nutrition is also important), but it's no accident that all the world's great

cheeses are made from raw milk and/or cream, and that all the great cheese

experts in the world unanimously agree on this.

I guess I just have no real motivation to go out and spend nearly

twice as much money just to say I eat raw cheese. In the case of

plastic nut butters and the real thing... I can't imagine choosing the

synthetic kind. But when it comes to cheese I'm really not impressed

(have tried 2 kinds so far). In all honesty, I don't think one is much

healthier than the other.

I love cheese, and have tried about 150 kinds in my life. But you know me, " it's

a food of love thing. " <G>

As to healthier and not-healthier, I do think that a really good, artisan-made,

fresh cheese made from pastured raw milk and cream from healthy, well-cared for

cows, goats, or sheep is much better for you than cheese made in a factory from

pasteurized milk from agri-farmed cows. In fact, that belief appears to me to be

the entire basis of this group, so I don't quite understand what you mean that

you don't think one is healthier than the other. As I said, all the really great

cheeses are made from raw milk, and all the artisan cheesemakers who are not

constrained by health regulations make their cheeses from raw milk and cream.

Hi ,

My pseudonym on almost all other boards I frequent online is Zulu. On

this board, and the calorie restriction board, which are somewhat more

personal, I post with my real name, ie: . Sometimes I confuse the

two; writing my nick at the bottom of posts can become automatic.

, i have to say i totally agree with Christie's posts about

cheese. i find dairy lustfully delicious in most of its forms, but

i've had some raw cheeses that blew my mind into outer space they

were so dramatically more delicious than other cheeses, raw or

pasteurized. i've contacted NASA to help me get my mind back, but in

the meantime i will continue to enjoy artisanal raw cheese. my

advice is to buy some premium raw cheese online or from a specialized

cheese shop. just don't eat it standing up near any sharp objects

that might damage your internal organs when you faint with pleasure.

ROFL, oh so true... I actually got WEEPY when my local Whole Foods stopped

carrying La Garottin because it's not actually aged 60 days as required by

idiotic US import laws. I mean, I felt like I was going to cry and I was so

embarrassed, but the woman at the cheese counter told me she had three other

customers who DID cry when she told them.

Don't mess with my cheese. <G>

Dear Zulu/,

FYI.... there are 100s of raw cheese out there maybe not so many available in

North America..

I guess when you're 17 yrs old you can make such pronouncements having tried

only two !

Sheesh, ! Food is not a chemistry experiment! It's about what you LOVE,

about what tastes good to you, about how what you eat makes you feel, about how

flavors work together with other flavors.

There are people all over the world who fuss and fret over every leaf of clover

and blade of grass their livestock eat - who get up at 5 am to milk their goats

- who sit in freezing cold barns ladeling cream into milk so they can make

traditional artisanal cheeses using recipes handed down for hundreds of years

from some little dairy in the south of France. Of COURSE it's intuitive. That's

the whole point. It's art.

And so is knowing the differences between the hundreds of kinds of cheeses there

are in the world. They are nutty, mossy, grassy, gamey, pungent, creamy, fruity,

woody..... the list is endless. It's like wine. As you eat great cheeses and

carefully-made cheeses, gradually your palate will become educated and you'll

realize that there is a world of difference among not just kinds of cheese, but

the same kind of cheese made in different years.

Cheese may never be " your thing, " that's fine. Everyone is different and has

different passions. But it's no more realistic to say there are no substantive

differences among cheeses than to say that a $4 bottle of Gallo is just the same

as a bottle of Château Mouton Rothschild.

I was going to suggest one of my favorite food books, " The Cheese Primer " by

. And it's a good one. But maybe a better one is " A Year in

Provence " by Mayle. The first is just the facts, ma'am, but the second is

the intuitive part. Both together would be just about perfect. :)

Then read www.realmilk.com, then if you have questions or want to dispute

something, please share. Pasteurization destroys lots of the nutrition,

including the enzymes, including the phosphatase, which is needed to assimilate

calcium. Pasturing is as important as raw, and most raw products are pastured,

whereas most pasteurized products are not. Full-fat is also important, and raw

milk is full-fat because it's just straight from the cow, whereas ordinary whole

milk has cream skimmed from it if it's above the government standard for the

fat content of " whole " milk. Pastuerized milk seems to be allergenic whereas

raw milk seems not to be.
