Hi Kelly – sorry this isn
Hi Kel, Just being neighborly and letting you know I am linking to this post which is amazing as usual! WE just got our raw milk in and of course, I had to write about it!

Thanks for all you do!
I wasn’t sure where to post this comment… I was wondering if you use your raw milk for cooking/baking or do you use a store brand?
Thanks for all your great information! I’ve learned so much from being a faithful reader.
keep up the good work!

Hi Shelley,
Back when I was still doing day care and had to buy store milk for the day care kids (I bought the more expensive stuff since it was better for them: whole non-homogenized from a local grass-based farm), then I would use that for baking since it was going to be heated anyway, and I’d save our raw milk for drinking so we’d get all the benefits of “raw”. Now that I don’t do day care anymore, we don’t buy any other milk, so yes, I use it for everything.
Take care!
Kelly
Just had my first glass of raw milk! Off we go! I have chicken feet and grass fed beef in my freezer, a whole pastured chicken in the fridge and now raw milk. I’m practically a “real foodie”. Now for lacto-fermentation…..
Again, thank you for all your great info and posts on your blog!!
Hi Kelly — I put a link to this post on my raw milk post (from yesterday). Wish I’d seen this before that but it’s up there now. Great info, thank you!
I simply do not understand how folks who have been using raw milk products are supposed to adapt to this GAPS diet and how can that be good for us? I mean, either raw milk is healing to the gut (as in Raw Milk Diet) or it isn’t. This is why so many people I’ve referred to a few of these foodie sites are turned off. They just get set up with a raw milk farmer to supply them with what they want, and then all of a sudden they find everyone promoting this “healthy” GAPS diet which won’t let you eat a thing in the line of dairy.
Once and for all – should we be using raw dairy or shouldn’t we? We all need to get onto the same page about this issue. It’s hard to take some of this stuff seriously when people are contradicting each other right, left and sideways. I don’t believe I could do without the natural fats involved in raw milk, butter and cheeses because I need all the oils/fats I can get.
Very confusing. But then it was also confusing when I first started studying the Atkins diet and learned how much soy he promoted. No wonder people just starting on this journey are confused, as well.
I agree that all this can be confusing!
As the next commenter, Sally, said, GAPS is good to follow if you have certain issues, and if so, many foods, even those that are good for us, need to be avoided only for a time.
Otherwise, raw milk is super nourishing!
Kelly
All foods are not for all people. The GAPS diet is to heal specific issues. If you don’t have those issues, you don’t need to go on the diet.
Kelly,
I would love to sent you some raw milk info for you to use as you like, but I wasn’t able to find your email address or link.
