LA Times Food Articles

I read two interesting food related articles in the LA Times this week.
The first is in regards to raw food. Federal, state and local authorities raided Rawesome Foods of Venice confiscating raw dairy products, organic honey, raw cane syrup, amongst other things.
How much of a danger can organic honey or non-pasteurized foods have upon the body? What do authorities consider as good health practices and how much of that is politically influenced? Does the dairy industry have a role in all of this?
The article is definitely worth a read:

The second article relates to eating wild foods and highlights the work of Christopher Nyerges, editor of Wilderness Way magazine, author of Guide to Wild Foods and Useful Plants and the head of Eagle Rock's School of Self-Reliance.
There are some other interesting references at the end of the article as well:
