Reminds me of when we were all being told butter was bad for us and we should eat oil based margarines to “lower our cholesterol”. I knew something about how margarines are made (it involved hexane, a toxic gas we used as an extinguisher in our computer rooms) and just thought it was ridiculous to replace a natural relatively unprocessed food with what is effectively an industrial product. And the whole cholesterol story turned out to be nonsense, several decades later. And another time when our neighbour’s dairy farm was cut off by snow he just gave us his raw milk rather than throw it away - just delicious. The nearest I’ve found to it recently is fresh organic goat’s milk, also delicious.
