Tbf, breastmilk isn't normally pasteurized

EDIT: If you can't figure out that this comment is humour, you seriously need to go outside and touch grass

And it’s immediately consumed usually, or is frozen and its composition differs from cows milk and is designed for human consumption.

Don’t know why you brought that up, unless it’s to point out how stupid people are thinking unpasteurized cows milk is drinkable because human milk doesn’t need to be.

Also, unlike cows, humans generally tend to give lots of outside signals of having listeriosis.

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 45 points 2 days ago

They're less likely to have shit on them, too.

I hear thats a good way to determine if some one is King as well.

There it is. Now you can all see it! This is the violence inherent in the system!

[-] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 days ago

That's true. That's not what listeria though, but it does cause most of the other scary milk diseases.

[-] Zephorah@discuss.online 12 points 2 days ago

I think it was a joke. A little levity in the midst of all this chaos and intentional hardship.

Yes, the deal with dairy farmers drinking the unpasteurized milk from their cows daily is that it’s consumed within 24hrs and then replaced with the next days milk.

RFK is a dipshit and MAGA is likely running with him for two reasons. Cutting FDA regs, insurance policing, fluoride, and vaccines save money. (Put another way, it keeps “their” money where it belongs, away from the working class.) It also thins the herd in the continuing decline of available resources while the planet fails.

is designed

No design was involved in the process of evolution

Don’t know why you brought that up

It's called humour. And some people in the comments actually got the joke.

It's obvious that "unpasteurized milk" is referring to cow's milk. Don't get pissed at me when you can't understand humour.

And before you say anything, we're in a memes community. It shouldn't be a surprise that people are trying to make jokes here

[-] ramble81@lemmy.zip 20 points 2 days ago

From those two numbers I think you need to work on your comedy routine. It was a bit…. curdled

[-] limer@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 day ago
[-] Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Now that was just sour.

It could possibly be from your clueless comment making me out to be satan.

It was a bit…. curdled

Your sense of comedy is far, far worse than mine.

Nah, it's that saying things that actual morons think isn't funny. It used to be funny when it was considered so ridiculous that no one would realistically believe it, but we don't live in those times any more.

Nah, it's that saying things that actual morons think isn't funny

Are you saying that breast milk is normally pasteurized?

Because that's what your comment implies

[-] Cornelius_Wangenheim@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

No, but it is something I've heard actual shit-infested milk drinkers say to defend their practice.

[-] sem 4 points 1 day ago

Don't cry over spilled milk 😂

[-] prole 2 points 1 day ago

If you don't lighten up, these folks are just gonna keep milking it.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 days ago

No sense in trying to argue with people like that.

[-] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

Grass is not pasteurized.

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Poe's law, my dude. There are definitely dipshits who make the argument that milk doesn't need to be pasteurized because breast milk isn't pasteurized.

[-] Vorticity@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago

It typically is pasteurized if it comes from a woman other than the baby's own mother. If it is donated milk, for example.

[-] sem 2 points 1 day ago

I did not know pasturized breastmilk was a commodity product.

A joke doesn't work when it's indistinguishable from the stuff that people actually say

You are on a written medium, where there is no tone, body language, or otherwise wider context. What do you expect to happen? People can't read your mind

or otherwise wider context

The knowledge that the issue with people drinking unpasterized milk happens with cow milk is the wider context.

[-] SkyeStarfall 5 points 1 day ago

I've literally seen people argue that since breast milk is unpasteurized then raw cow milk is fine
