Topic:
Why isn’t raw milk legal anymore? I will be talking about the benefits of raw milk. How it’s good for us and will keep us from so many health problems.

Sources:
(1) CBS Minnesota News. “3 Senators Propose Legalizing Sale of Raw Milk”. January 28, 2011. Web. http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2011/01/28/3-senators-propose-legalizing-sale-of-raw-milk/

I am going to use this website to help support my topic because this website/ video shows how people want to drink raw milk because its better for our health. It kills germs that are harmful for our body and its better for our body system then pasteurized milk.

(2) Burton, Susan. “Some Like it Raw”. April 18, 2010. Web. http://nymag.com/restaurants/features/65483/

This article will be used to show the passion that people still want raw milk even though some people don’t want it but a lot of people out New York want raw milk to be legalized so it is easier for them to get it.

(3) FDA Food and Drug Administration. “The Dangers of Raw Milk: Unpasteurized Milk Can Pose a Serious Health Risk”. January 27, 2011. Web. <http://www.fda.gov/Food/ResourcesForYou/Consumers/ucm079516.htm>

This article compares pasteurized milk and raw milk so by using this website I will show the positive side of raw milk.

(4) Vonderplanitz, Aajonus.  “What Started Pasteurization?”. Web. http://www.rawmilk.org/pdf/pasteurization-history.pdf

This document talks about how pasteurization started, to give it a little of background information and about the negatives of it.

  1. Your sources seem to be reliable because I see that one is from CBS which is a well know television broadcast, your second source is an article from the NY magazine which would have fact checker sand editors, and the FDA which is the food and drug administration dealing with the safety of food.
    Your sources do seem relevant to your stated research topic because it shows how there are people who want raw milk, also how it can prevent health problems, and the positive side/history of raw milk.
    You might want to have a brief paragraph or mention about why raw milk was legalized.
    Your first source does not look right you should look at the citation for media. As for your 2nd source work on your punctuation it seems to be a minor mistake. Your last source should follow the citation for government publications.
    I think you could work on the research question a bit more. While for the topic it will make a compelling research essay, because it is well focused enough that you will be able to write a well length essay.
