"Genesis," So, is it pasteurized or not?

I don't think it is pasteurized , it's been long time since I ha d this brand over a year ago.

I checked their site...it is FLASH PASTEURIZED, which is the proper way to pastuerize this juice. Keeps the shelf life at 2 years and preserves the nutrient integrity of the juice.

It does not say on the package if it is pasteurized or unpasteurized. However, I emailed them a question of my own and I got a response right away and they were very kind. teraswhey.com

I just checked my bottle and it doesn't say that it's pasteurized anywhere on the label.

I had this question, too. It says it's Kosher so I think it should be, but I'm not sure.

You're right that this butter I'll is cooked, but the owner has a a really good response to that. Check out their website and give them a call if you can't find your answer on their FAQ page. He said pasteurization does not affect outcome. He is a scientist.

Pretty sure it isn't pasteurized, freeze dried don't know, been a long time since I had the package.

Unless Artisana has changed their sources, this is made from pasteurized, California almonds. If you're looking for raw almond butter from non-pasteurized almonds, you can Google "non-pasteurized raw almond butter."

There's nothing to indicate otherwise on the bottle. It's not raw though and I assume it's been pasteurized -- it takes a long time for it to crystallize. But you can tell they haven't strained out the pollens, like the stuff from China does, from the taste.

Storm Weaver, if you're still monitoring this discussion, do you heat the milk first? I can get good raw milk, but if I have to pasteurize it I don't think it's worth the extra money. Everything I've read says this must be done.

No. And No. If you do a little research "raw" is not actually raw anyway due to the heat involved in processing.

I am sorry, K. Vee, I do not know the answer to your question. My assumption--and I repeat "assumption"--is that it is denatured in the pasteurization process, but I've not felt it to be an important issue for me specifically. I am not looking for "results" as a young bodybuilder would. I am a senior male, placed on a zero-fat diet by a cardiovascular surgeon, following a fem-pop bypass in my left leg. I have difficulty in getting sufficient protein in my diet, thus the supplement. I have found that I can keep up very strenuous activity all day when I use the whey protein supplement, which was my goal.

About these particular nuts, I cannot comment. But for your general information and in answer to the comment by Leann McCamey: I am sorry to have to inform you that the FDA specifically allows steam-heat pasteurized almonds to be labeled "RAW" Yes, even though they are "cooked" by being pasteurized, the FDA allows (and perhaps encourages) the industry to continue to label them raw. The other method of "pasteurization" is fumigation by toxic gas (my memory is not screening up the chemical right now, just google for it) and those also are "raw", I am not sure how "organic" they are according to the USDA's definition of "organic". Of course none of this fits MY definition of safe, wholesome, raw or organic. About these particular nuts, I cannot comment.

I checked my three jars of honey, and none of them have a "PASTEURIZED" label. I still think it is just Raw, Unpasteurized honey.

There is no indication on the jar that the almonds are pasteurized. It is a Raw Almond Butter. The manufacturer will have to answer this one I'm afraid.

I never did. It never smelled rancid. You can stub your toe on it though! I'm pretty sure it's prepared. It's not "raw".

It comes as a very fine powder, not freeze dried, and I don't think it is pasteurized

The label just says, "Made from pasteurized milk." But I can tell you it's really good feta!
