Cheese is one of those unfortunately vilified foods that causes hesitation for some. First, the plant-based mainstream is pretty anti-dairy right now. And second, even though the saturated fat theories of the 1950s have more holes than Swiss, it’s been pretty difficult to convince the masses that good saturated fat actually exists.

Let’s be clear. I am NOT talking about Velveeta or any cheese that has ingredients other than milk, culture, and real salt (and maybe some natural herbs or spices or wood smoke). That excludes vegan cheese, which, with all the highly processed ingredients… well, no thanks, I’m gouda.

I have some great news - real old fashioned raw cheese is excellent for your health! You can be proud and healthy eating it daily.

There are so many reasons why. So many that I’ll keep each sharp and to the point.

According to several studies, eating 40 grams of cheese per day can reduce your risk of heart disease and stroke by up to 18%. It can also protect your teeth from cavities, especially with children.

Raw cheese is a great source of calcium, healthy fat, and protein.

Raw cheese is full of beneficial bacteria and enzymes, which feeds a healthy gut microbiome and can be a cure to a lack of energy.

Raw cheese, especially made from 100% grass-fed milk, is loaded with bioavailable vitamins and minerals! These include vitamins A, D, E, K, many B-complex vitamins, selenium, zinc, beta-carotene, choline, phosphorus, riboflavin, and biotin.

Raw cheese contains specialized immunity components like lactoferrin, which protects against virus infection, and IGA immunoglobulins, the most common antibody. It helps boost our immune system!

And, on top of all this, Miller’s Bio Farm cheese is 100% A2. The A2 beta-casein protein is more digestible than the A1 beta-casein protein, found in nearly all American cow milk and cheese.

We’re here to make real healthy cheese easily part of your diet. And, it’s about to get a bit cheesier. Praise Cheeses!

We’re so happy to introduce shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese today! It’s simply cheese that’s shredded to save you time. You won’t find any preservatives or anti-caking agents with Miller’s. Be one of the first to buy shredded cheese on the store now! 

Imagine all the possibilities with shredded cheese - pizza, tacos, dips, casseroles, quesadillas, mac and cheese, cheesy soup.

What’s your favorite cheese, and how do you like to eat it? I’d love to hear from you!

A2 beef vs A2 dairy. What's the difference? One doesn't even exist in the US.

Every once in a while, a customer sees that we offer A2/A2 dairy and asks, "Do you sell A2 beef?" When this happens, I let them know that A2 beef isn't a thing... at least not in the United States. But, A2/A2 dairy is. The dairy vs. beef classifications are based on two completely separate things. One has to do with marbling in meat, and the other has to do with the type of protein in milk. Here's the explanation of both.

What's in our natural egg feed? And why is it in there anyway?

Our egg farmers recently switched to a new, natural, and 100% honest feed supplier. We are thrilled that they'll work with us to create a corn & soy free feed that fits our natural requirements. Here are answers to common questions about the feed as well as the nitty gritty details about the feed ingredients.

Egg yolk changes. We were greenwashed and are furious! Here's the scoop.

If you've followed our blog for some time, then you know that I do a good amount of muckraking on the food industry - conventional, organic, or otherwise. But, this week, I need to rake the muck on us (more specifically on our corn & soy free eggs)! Here's the scoop and everything you need to know about us formulating a new feed with a trusted source.
