Apple Cider (Pastuized)

Apple cider is a great drink. It tastes good, it's good for you, and, well, there's not much wrong with it. I used to love apple cider, and I still do, but it has gone downhill. Why? Because of a law to protect people's health. All apple cider must be pasturized. Now, I'm not saying it is a bad thing to protect people's health, but I don't think this is the right way. Pasturizing apple cider gets rid of some of the freshness and suddenly it doesn't taste as good. If the law was that all apples made into apple cider must be picked fresh from the tree, and that they can't be used if they were on the ground, it would treat the same cause. And guess what? We'd still have genuine apple cider. Why didn't anybody think of that? Here is a perfectly good solution and they partially ruin apple cider!
