In Poland, many people look down on pasteurized and UHT milk (which is most of it). The city where I presently live has a vending machine(s) for raw milk, you can even bring your own bottles to save the environment.

A big benefit of raw milk is that it goes sour and is suitable for a variety of fermentation methods. This is rich in probiotics and just plain tasty. Also serves as an intermediate product for some recipes like crumpets. Here's a list of used fermentation methods by country: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermented_milk_products

Here's the default state raw milk reaches within a few days: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soured_milk

EU and US have opposite approaches to some foods. For example in US, chicken eggs are chemically washed completely clean to fight salmonella and other bugs. Unfortunately, it washes off the protective layer they have and eggs go bad faster. So they repaint eggs with another chemical to protect them. In EU, eggs instead receive only basic washing and you frequently find traces of crap on your eggs. US in general is high on processed foods (Oreo cookies in recipes?).

Another case is hygiene. Circumcision is common in US for 'hygienic reasons'. Alternatively, you can use soap.

My point is that you can go too far with fixing nature.
