goats in Kingston, who was able to sell me some raw goat milk (for my dogs).

Of course,

my dogs allowed me to use some of THEIR milk to make my kefir. I was a little

necessary to freeze

it. She did not keep a billy goat on the premises BTW, as I know that can

impart a goaty

flavour.....

--- Pugh,

The good fathers and mothers at the NC state

legislature have determined the us wayward children

should not be allowed to sell, or buy and therefore

drink, (Shudder, grimice in horror) raw milk from

humanely treated cows fed on grass. But the

pasteurized, homogonized, processed, injected,

detected, selected, adultrated milk from hormone

treated, gastronomically abused bovines who never see

dirt is just fine, thank you very much.

Us outlaws resort to labels like " RAW MILK, FOR PET

FOOD ONLY, NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION. "

I live about 130 miles west of NewBern. Good luck on

finding a source.

Hi Bill,

Thanks for setting me straight. Sounds as if NC is as bad as Ontario in

that regard then :-( Maybe I'll have to take a little trip out to

Lakeview some time, in order to buy some of your milk which is not fit for

human consumption {VBG} I'm sure that my dogs would love it - wink, wink,

say no more......... ;-)
