There is nothing wrong with UHT milk products even those products that use radiation preservation I am not in the milk industry and have no vested interest on either side. Those who state UHT is bad and suggest its not good for our health are liars. When these farmers who attack such products go into this area themselves they will sing a different tune. UHT is find, I have been drinking it for years and in some cases its better for those who have issues with other milk products. There are many papers stating its a solid and logical way to distribute milk. Please note who attacks UHT milk…those who compete with this technology.

In europe, refridgerated milk is 'fresh', and UHT is on non-refrifgerated shelves. BTW, I agree UHT tastes bad, but it's not true you can't use it for yoghurt, i works fine, if anything a little richer than fresh milk.

It works fine. Indeed, it's incredibly convenient to not have to pasteurize the milk yourself... I like it better than commercial yogurt. I agree with much of the Weston Price philosophy in principle, but their article about UHT (which finds its way into articles such as yours) is just plain wrong, and maybe even intentionally misleading. I'll leave it to you to decide whether or not you think UHT is good or not. But, without a doubt, you can make fine yogurt with it. Thousands (millions?) of people do. I use Yogourmet yogurt starter or just propogate the culture from previous batches. I’ve been making yogurt for the last 3 years using UHT milk. It works fine.

Here in Cananda I've never seen UHT organic milk. I went to the fancy grocery store and really poked around and managed to find some full-fat, cream-top milk that was not UHT. We didn't even come close to drinking all of it in the couple days we were there, but my dad commented after we left that he drank the rest of it and it was the best milk he had tasted in a long, long time. They still don't believe me that it's good for you, too.

They'll know. Otherwise, you can check out the very limited listings at www.realmilk.com and ask around at your local farmer's markets.

There's a local dairy that gently pasteurizes their milk and doesn't homogenize it. We can pick it up at either the Farmer's Market or a couple local health-food stores. I also know of a couple of brands of pasteurized, homogenized milk that comes from grass-fed cows and ISN'T UHT processed (if you're really desperate). Also, have you contacted your local Weston A Price chapter leader? It's possible that there's a nearby herdshare arrangement where you can get raw milk by buying a share of a cow. Anyhow, you're lucky to have goats! Even when we “have” to drink the pasteurized stuff, we still have a few options.
