They seem to be evaluating whether protocols for safe production are possible and can be incorporated into our code - a very good thing. This link tells you all about their Raw Milk Products Project. It even includes the name and contact details of a food safety scientist involved, who you can contact to receive updates on progress: http://www.foodstandards.gov.au/newsroom/factsheets/factsheets2008/rawmilkproductscurre3959.cfm I suggest sending ENCOURAGING words (not aggro ones!), expressing thanks, support and enthusiasm - so that they feel good about their role in (hopefully) getting this ancient, natural, health-promoting product back on people's tables and returning this fundamenal right to consumers.

I would recomend a book by Paul Chek (he writes on fitness and health), he has a lot about milk in it if you are curious about food processing (and healthy eating in general). What I would really like would be for all packaging on aphrodite products to have a place that we can lodge our support for raw milk (whether it is real milk aus or they form their own). If people knew that there was a movement to join people might be more inclined to register. I looked for a place to lodge support, if I didn't look I would never have found it. Shove it under our noses please so the list of supporters grows fast. While of course aphrodite does not sell milk to drink, it is ideally pleaced to argue for the choice regardless of the risk (which is arguable anyway). Hopefully aphrodite can find a way to get it past the legal team because if there is not public support there will be no change to the laws. For those feeling a little more active I would even recommend that you write to your local independent supermarket and ask them to stock raw milk. I noticed there is an IGA that stocks it, if the local supermarket stocks it then laws are more likely to change. While we have to hunt high and low for stockists it remains very low key.

It has now reached the stage where I need to pre order my raw milk through either the markets or local health food store which stocks Cleopatras Bath Milk from Qld otherwise they sell out and I miss out on my weeks supply (which does not make for a happy household when the chief cook and nourisher is not nourished herself!!)

I will be retiring in 12 months and I now know that I must become engaged at the public level of overturning the iniquitious laws that govern our right to choose the way we live and eat. I believe deeply in setting laws to protect society in general but when I see what is an abuse of that system, whether deliberately by big Agribusiness or inept or even worse, corrupt officials, then I am compelled to act. I would be interested to know if there are any lobby groups out there already addressing this issue and if not is there people who will give time and money to start lobbying and creating a groundswell of outrage at the minipulation and bogus science that has operated in this area for far too long. Knowing the public service from my unfortunate years of having to deal with various bureaucracies, including one of the worst, The Health Department, I have been aware, for a very long time, of their genius for avoiding work or taking on anything remotely positive such as regular inspections of Dairies so that Organic herding and milking would be possible. It will be a long and arduous confrontation with them, The big boys in the Industry and the too often venal and ill informed Politicians surrounding these kinds of issues. But it must be done if we are to have a better dietary future for our families and loved ones.

Since stopping dairy products, which I love, my digestion has improved dramatically. I realise to continue to enjoy whatever time I have left on this mortal coil I need to find a Raw Milk supplier in Melbourne. I can make my own cheeses and yoghurt if I can get real cream, butter etc. as I have the time now I am semi retired and there are ample books to help create my needs..I just need the real product to do so. Can you help and please put me on any list or petition to the authorities that will overturn the draconian legislation and offensive of freedom of choice the current situation enforces on us.
