    I’ve been waiting over 90 days for an appointment with the nutritionist. Newly diagnosed diabetic, and Bobby has made it so easy for me they have discontinued my insulin injections for oral medications! Thank you so much! I am singing you praises to all who want to know how I lost 40 pounds so easily!! Keep up the great work!

      Bobby, "Where were you all our lives!!"
      That's what we all are saying. I been gobbling up all these poisons the FDA has approved of. It's too late as far as my age goes, 79, but l do feel better at least knowing what l'm putting in my body. Shame on the people to put money first & our health last!

      @@Kbmaas I'm jealous, they don't allow raw milk in my state. I got my grains on amazon ~$15. You definitely want live grains, not powdered. Strain the grains out with a nylon strainer to make kefir milk. Never let metal touch your kefir. Then strain with a cheese cloth to make yogurt/cheese. For that last step I use a combination of the strainer & cheese cloth, versus others will make a ball w/ the cheese cloth.
      At first I was fermenting every 24 hours. When grains are new they will need this process to grow. Eventually you can slow down. Now I only ferment 1/2 gallon once a week (6 days in the fridge + 24hrs on the shelf).

    I was raised on unpasteurized milk and cheese (I'm Irish, my grandparents were farmers, plenty of grassfed cows and free milk because of that). I developed a serious case of lactose intolerance because of it - before the age of two. Raw milk is far stronger and creamier than pasteurized milk. It's delicious but a word of warning: sometimes it's pasteurized for a reason and unpasteurized milk and dairy may not suitable for everyone.

Unless you suck milk right from a cow's teats and have the digestive system and immunity of a calf, you may get sick from drinking unpasteurized milk, especially if it stays in the temperature danger zone for a long time.

    First of all, I love your videos Bobby. I am subscribed and recommend you to my friends. Secondly, on this occasion, I have to take you off your high horse for a moment. You kind of dismissed Parmigiano Reggiano pretty quickly. You should highlight more "Parmigiano Reggiano". This cheese is great on the stomach, and in Italy, for example, it's one of the few items doctors say you can eat when having stomach troubles. Parmigiano is great alone, grated fresh on pasta recipes and as an ingredient in several recipes (many, many Italian recipes have Parmigiano in them). Not only does it have a great aged flavor -- but it's versatile, good for you, and just simply wonderful. So, it may be more expensive, but oh so worth it. In the video you've compared Romano to Parmigiano, but it's worth noting that they don't substitute each other (simply put, they are different flavors).
    One last thing, where was the fresh mozzarella in water?? I mean, that is a lovely cheese to eat, like in a caprese salad, or alone. :-) Some examples of nice ones are: (1) Galbani Bocconcini [in Safeway or Bashas, where I live] and (2) Garofalo Mozzarella di Bufala campana
    (Water buffalo mozzarella) [in Costco, where I live]. But, there are many more types, sizes & shapes, and in different stores there are different brands, of course.
    My request to you is: Can you do an entire episode on quality Italian Cheeses?

    I grew up on a dairy farm. Our cows were mostly grass fed with a bucket of mixed grain provided twice a day during milking time. During winter the cows grazed on a winter grass pasture and hay. Each day we had fresh milk to drink without homogenization or pasteurization.

    Professional cheesemonger and cheese educator here. Lots of great tips for the average shopper. Thank you for taking the time to do this! But here's a suggestion for everyone: look at who your local cheesemakers are and support local businesses by buying local cheese! (Your state may have a local cheese guild or cheese association that will help you figure out who those fine folks are.) It may be more expensive, but it helps strengthen your local food economy--and during COVID, we've all seen how the national and global food chain broke down so easily. Plus you might be able to go visit their farm or creamery, so that you will really know where your food is coming from! Many small creameries can't afford the exorbitant costs associated with becoming certified organic, so only buying organic instead of buying local may mean that you are missing out on cheesemakers who are doing things right but can't afford to stick a label on their cheeses to prove it. And at some point, all mass-produced cheeses are the same, even with the organic or grass-fed label slapped on them. (For what it's worth, corn is technically a grass, so grass-fed cheeses may be from cows who received a supplement of corn. That's common knowledge in the cheese industry.) And to be totally clear: sheep and goat's milks DO contain lactose. ANY cheese that is old enough to have grown a rind is going to be virtually free of lactose.

    Thanks for the informative video! I love Annie’s Mac n cheese for my grandkids, but had no idea they made grass fed! Will be looking for that. My grandkids love Mac n cheese. I buy pecorino Romano from Costco. It’s a huge chunk, but it lasts a long time. I personally only eat sheep’s or goats milk cheese because it’s easier to digest. My dietitian recommended it years ago. My functional doc showed me in my blood test results, several times, that I have inflammation when I eat anything made from cows milk. Actually can see a certain kind of white cell rise in number-which is inflammation. I’m a science nerd and fascinated by this stuff. :)

    Thanks for the video Bobby! Have been on a quest for the perfect, healthiest cheese. Any pasteurized dairy loses crucial nutrients and enzymes. Raw grass fed organic seems to be the best option, but very limited choices in the store. There seems to be a lot of labeling tricks on how you can claim "raw" dairy. According to USDA anything cooked below 161 degrees can be considered raw even though at that temp, it is sub-pasteurized. Hence companies like Organic Valley get away with calling their cheese "raw" when it really isn't. Was really disappointed to read about that. Best solution: Buy from trusted farmers, ask about their process, and/or make cheese yourself.

    In Canada, it is like Ireland where the weather is too cold for the cows to forage for most of the year. So during the warmer months, grass-fed (conventional and organic) have to be let out for 6 hours a day for 120 days of the year. Most dairy is fed a mix of grass, forage and grain here because in the winter it just isnt possible to get grass. For organic cows, they just have to eat organically grown crops. No milk in Canada, conventional or organic, can contain antibiotics when it reaches the supply chain or it is dumped out. The strict laws apply to both in Canada so it is a little harder to differentiate here lol! It really comes down to the individual farmer and animal welfare here. Most farmers are pretty good, but even some organic farmers will put their cows out in the sweltering heat just to meet that 6 hour requirement when the cow would prefer to be inside...

    Growing up Tillamook cheese was made with milk from the cows in the Tillamook valley, pasture raised year-round. Their small batch cheese was expensive and could only be bought locally.
