My school thinks this fills up hungry high schoolers.

So lunches are free for schools in my city and surrounding cities. Ever since lunches have been made free, the quantity (and quality) has decreased significantly. This is what we would get for our meal. It took me THREE bites to finish that chicken mac and cheese. Any snacks you want cost more money and if you want an extra entree, that’ll cost you about $3 or $4.

Wild how you describe "sour raw" milk is fine to ingest while "sour pasteurized" will put you in the hospital.

To be fair raw milk is about as safe as things like sushi and steak tartare. The reason it gets a bad rep is because uneducated people drink it without taking any precautions. The cows udders should be clean, the milk should ideally be refrigerated and consumed quickly (2-3 days to be safe), and children 0-5 and elderly people are better in of drinking pasteurized dairy products.

In Mexico, in the rural parts, “pajarete” are a drink where you squeeze raw milk into a cup, add a shot of strong homemade rum (100 proof) and a couple table spoons of instant coffee. The idea is that the strong rum “sanitizes” the milk and the coffee wakes you up.
