Erica and I conducted one of our interviews on Tuesday.  We knew nothing about the topic until we started talking to her friend's mom.  We learned a lot of things about raw milk that some people do not know.  We also learned that it is illegal in New Jersey.  Raw milk has a golden color to it because of the nutrueits in it.  It also has a lot of health benefits.  Our interviewee's kids had a lot of health issues when they were babies and then they started drinking raw milk and it was if their ear infections were cured.  So we asked her why she thinks its banned in New Jersey.  It mostly has to do with the pasterazation process.  There are 29 states where it is illegal.  It just seems wrong since it seems like it has a lot of health benefits.  I would think they would want to make this available to everyone.  Raw milk in retail stores cost about the same as a regular gallon of milk.  Our interviewee says she hasn't bought regualar milk for so long that she doesn't remember how much it costs.  She told us what raw milk costs and it is about the same.
