I am more interested in info on raw milk to make your own yogurt from. I love yogurt, and I don't eat any since it's not raw from the store (not that I have seen). I absolutely LOVE greek yogurt. I miss it alot... and i made my own yogurt here for years and years.... something I've thought about and want to see what I can do to add it back in.
I do flax meal, but not flax oil yet. I probably will buy some next shopping trip. Just haven't gotten that far yet.
Thanks again!

I have tried goat, sheep and cow cheese - all are yummy and make me feel good. I have to admit that I have a general preference for the goat.
Flax meal (especially made fresh and especially soaked and then dehydrated and then made into meal) is supposed to be better than the oil. I do the oil because I don't have my vitamix still to make the meal.
I'll have to check out Costco to see if they have any raw cheese. That would be fabulous. We're no longer members of Sam's.
I don't eat enough cheese that it effects the pocket book that badly getting it from WF, but any savings is appreciated. Some of the particular cheese are astronomical though. I just stay away from those - and those are rarely goat cheeses.
It's real hard to find raw milk unless you live in the country and have a neighbor or something. I think it's amazing that I've been able to find a source for goat's milk and yogurt. I actually still "own" some goats. That's how they make it legally. I'm a part owner of the herd.
Raw cheeses aged long enough are legal to sell in stores whereas raw milk and yogurt aren't. That's why you can find raw cheese and not milk.
At least I have my cheese. I'd guess that the cheese has the same elements as the yogurt that we're supposed to mix with flax, so since it's so easy and yummy I do that instead... at least for now.
What's the difference between Greek yogurt and regular yogurt?
