Why raw milk is banned in the US – BBC REEL

There is a new appetite in the food and wine industry for unpasteurised milk products, also known as raw milk. Foodies and restaurant diners are often wowed by the complex flavours of raw milk products, but are they safe to eat and drink?

We uncover the truth about raw milk.
