Actually, I hate milk and am very allergic to it. I like cheese but rarely eat it. In Europe I prefer raw sheep's milk. I read anecdotally that that both raw (grass-fed) milk and beef are much better than cooked. I don't eat much meat at all. I sometimes buy sushi grade tuna and eat it raw to get my mercury allowance ;-)
