Do you mean pasteurized? Homogenized just means that the milk is mixed so there isn't a fat layer.

Also it can be pasteurized and still organic. So I am suspicious of your understanding here.

He already said he “only did a quick google” so it’s fair to say there is no understanding. Love the vague “health problems” as the reason to avoid safe milk too lol.

This has nothing to do with anything, but I know what homogenized means in the context of milk, but when I was a kid, I used to think it meant milk from different cows had been mixed. Like, that's why the called it homogenized. That they were, for some reason, mandated to make giant vats of cow-juice from millions of cows, and stir it together before they could sell it.

Homogenisation is done by forcing milk through a hole at high pressure this breaks up the fat into small particles.

Of course milk should be pasteurised, it's the homogenisation that should be avoided.

So what is the problem with homogenization? You like big fat globs instead of small ones? You want fat to separate out for better health? It's just a mechanical treatment.
