Mostly I want it to cook with, anyway. Sometimes I use milk in protein shakes, too. but I don't just drink a plain glass of milk very often. I also want it to make yogurt with it. But I'm thinking that if I use it in recipes, there might not be such a noticeable taste difference. Of course, I might like the taste. I was surprised to find that I really like soy milk. I think sometimes we just get used to how something tastes, like skim milk, and then think we don't like anything different.

Milk however, I haven't experimented much with. I will ask around to see what other people think, since I work with a couple of pees who do the raw diet.

If you lived in Virginia you could have all the farm fresh eggs (Chicken and Duck), and goat's milk that you could ever want. My brother gives it away to people.
Of course I'd love it if someone just wanted to give me eggs and milk but I am happy to pay for them. I just can't find anyplace to buy raw milk! At least not raw cow milk. I'm gonna have to research the goat milk a little. I'm guessing if you bought goat milk in a store, it probably came from a small farm, wouldn't you think? There aren't huge goat milk farms out there like there are with cows, are there? Or maybe there are and I just don't know about it. I'm assuming if I bought goat milk in a store it would be pasteurized, but maybe the goats would be raised on pasture, not in containment facillities?

I am not sure about goat farms in my area, I have not heard of any but my brother has about 30 of them and they are grass fed. The field they are in has several huge apple trees, a pear tree, 3 black heart cherry tree's and a prisimon tree that they eat the fruit from too. I would think the taste of the milk would have to do with what the goats eat. (not sure though). I do know they are very happy and healthy animals. My brother built a temp controled chicken house for the chickens and ducks. He also leaves a radio on for them 24/7 (lol) I think that is to keep the coyotes, fox, bear and other animals away that may prey on the poultry. In addition, according to them it makes them lay more eggs! (Not sure about that one either) (lol) Everything that his animals eat, he grows on his land. He doesn't buy feed from a feed store. It is hard to tell what they put in store bought feed nowadays! (eek)
