I couldn't agree more! Raw milk and unpasturized juices are prohibited here in Oregon as well since the whole Odwalla scare in the 1990s. One can still buy raw milk directly from a farm though. The enzymes and nutritional value are destroyed with pasturization and if you are buying fresh and local products pasturization is absolutely not necessary!! The whole Kerrygold and Wisconsin thing is economical and political and from what I've read it has nothing to do with the butter quality or any other claims the Dairy Association is making.
