Goat milk

I came across some goat milk at the health food store. I didn't get it. Has anyone tried it before? I know it is suppose to be better for you than cow milk.

I'm not much of a milk fan, but did get it for when I had ulcers, doctor recommended it. But for someone who doesn't like milk , it was okay and guess healthy.

I've always heard goat milk was very "strong" but don't know personally. I don't think I could drink it either.

I'd love to try some "natural" milk though-in some areas you can buy milk that has not been pasteurized and it's supposed to be really good for you. Very healthy and packed full of nutrients, etc. It's illegal to sell here in Virginia though :ohwell:

Unpasteurized milk is a continuing public health problem:

A Legal History of Raw Milk in the United States
Andy Weisbecker, J.D.
April 2007 • Journal of Environmental Health

"Because raw-milk sales have not been outlawed
altogether, outbreaks associated with
raw milk continue to occur. There have been
numerous documented outbreaks of E. coli,
Salmonella, and Campylobacter infections directly
linked to the consumption of unpasteurized
milk in the past 20 years. CDC reports that
from 1998 to 2005 there were 39 outbreaks
in which unpasteurized milk, or cheese made
from unpasteurized milk, was implicated as the
cause. These outbreaks occurred in 22 states,
and two were multistate outbreaks. An estimated
831 illnesses, 66 hospitalizations, and one
death were associated with these outbreaks.10
In December 2005, following an outbreak that
sickened at least 19 people in Washington State,
FDA again publicly warned consumers to avoid
drinking raw milk.11
Government regulation of the food industry
is commonly accepted as a means both of
protecting public health and of maintaining
public confidence in the food supply. Despite
great success in reducing raw milk outbreaks
during the past hundred years, however, government
regulation and enforcement have
not yet succeeded in wholly eradicating the
sale of raw milk. The sale of raw milk continues
to be legal, in some form or another, in
almost half the country’s states, and the attendant
risk of raw milk–related outbreaks
therefore also continues to be present."

Don't know if its true or not, but I read that not everyone has the ability to detect a certain component that is in goat's milk. Those that have the ability can taste a "goaty" taste, but to the others it just tastes like milk. My hubby and a few of our kids can't tell much difference from cow milk, but the other kids and I think it is NASTY!!!

i really like apetina (goats cheese) mainly because i cant eat much cheese due to mygraines
so i crumble some over salads to get my cheese fix and that way i dont eat to much because it has a very strong flavor ..
