1. Are dairy products healthy?

Everything should be eaten in moderation, as part of a well balanced diet. Various scientific researches prove that dairy products have very good side effects on your weight. Scientists in Tennessee reached this conclusion by comparing 3 different groups of obese people who followed a hypo caloric diet (less than 500kcal per day).

2. Is it dangerous to eat cheeses made with raw milk / unpasteurized milk?

Thanks to quality controls and traceability measures, this kind of product carries a low risk.
These cheeses just need specific storing conditions; you must respect them as well as the expiry date. Pregnant women should seek advice of their doctor. It is not only raw milk cheeses but all soft cheeses that could carry listeria. Look at for the words “lait cru” on packaging (it means the milk is unpasteurized).
However don’t forget that raw milk is supposed to make dairy products all the more delicious!

3. Can we eat cheeses’ rind?

Most cheese rinds can be eaten, except of course the rinds of hard cheeses (Emmental, Comté…). None are poisonous; they just may have a strong flavour and/or very hard texture.
Obviously it depends on everyone’s own taste, if you prefer the inside of the cheese.
