*cottage cheese noises*
I eat dairy daily. Lactase persistence is a wonderful human adaptation. My northern European heritage pretty much guarantees it. I do feel sorry for my lactose intolerant friends though.

I'm Northern European. I drink several pints of milk a day and eat loads of cheese. I also take a lactose supplement because, why not🤷🏻♂️. (U don't actually take a supplement but the first bit is true😬).
Milk, cheese, yogurt, kefir, I want it all.
I find I drink less milk these days, but I incorporate more cheese & yogurt to compensate. I mostly use milk for an ingredient in recipes now. When I was younger a litre of milk was a lunch I had often though.
Yum! Doggo loves it.
Same here. Mosha just had hers. I get a major staredown when I open the cheese tub.
Cottage cheese is my favorite layer of the lasagne. If you've never tried that, do it. So good.
Lactose is just sugar.
People who can't digest it need to ask themselves if they're actually serious or just attention seeking
I love cheese
Everyone I known that claims to be lactose intolerant has no problem drinking milk.
But they all complain about cheese when hard cheese has absolutely no lactose and soft cheese has a lot less lactose than milk.
I've not long started back at the gym so between 2 and 3 pints of full fat milk. I've also started eating 500g of Greek yoghurt a day😂😂. (High protein content).
Lactose intolerant? Just take a stinky wet shit after NBD
#YESTR I keep an open spot in my fridge for a giant vat of Greek yogurt. I like the 12%MF kind, so creamy & delicious.
Vat😬😂.
Same, or anything that sounds like it 😂😂
Yes I have had it with cottage cheese.
My interesting journey with lactose intolerance ended with raw milk. My guess is that the raw milk fats help me digest it, but homogenized milk is poison to me.
It's so good in lasagne. Also as an addition to scrambled eggs.
Mosha has incredible hearing, even in her old age. Open a bag of peanuts? Nothing. Open a container of coffee? Nothing. Open a cheese bag, or a yogurt container? Boom! She's instantly beside me, putting a gentle paw on my foot and staring with her big old eyes. I swear she knows the sounds of every food in my kitchen and can differentiate between them. It all sounds the same to me 🤷♂️
I can get it in 2L containers at the grocer. I'll take the family size, just for me please 😂😋
Wowzers😳. Mine just come in 500g pots so I'll just eat one a day. I get the zero fat ones but will try the 10% ones on your recommendation🙏🏻.
😂 she's a lady who knows what she wants.
The high fat ones are great. I like to throw in some frozen fruit, blueberries or cherries. Mix and let it sit for 5 minutes and it's better than ice cream.
This is true.
I grew up drinking raw milk, that may have helped with my lifelong addiction to dairy.
That's a blessing 👌 and most likely.
I drank the processed stuff but still always loved dairy foods. But it wasn't until I started drinking raw milk that I started to drink milk itself, not just adding it to other things.
I used to blend frozen fruit into my protein shakes. When I used to go the gym years ago when I was really into it, I'd make a protein shake in the morning; full fat milk, protein powder, loads of porridge oats, honey, walnuts and a banana. It was over 1200 calories😂😂😂.
This is the way. It's like a milkshake but healthy.
Made cream cheese for a pumpkin roll last week. I do have cheese, kefir & a big ole glass of milk daily for breakfast
I love a big glass of kefir, good stuff 👍
Cheese is my favourite
Kefir cured my intolerance
kinda think consuming the fermented version of things can remove alot of addiction to things.
Whole heartedly agree. I read this book this summer called super gut. It had some “yogurt” recipes for cultivating specific strains of bacteria to help eliminate small intestine bacterial overgrowth. It was a game changer. I love yogurt, that is why I was intrigued, I did not believe I had sibo. But after a few weeks so many minor symptoms disappeared I am sure I had sibo. Crazy!
If i recall correctly, there is a family in the Lakewood area somewhere that came from eastern Europe and were amazed by the lack of “cultures” available, so they started importing and growing some of the natural culture strains that people in Eastern Europe keep growing for generations.
It is fascinating. There are so many types of cultured diary products. The bacterial numbers you can get from a home ferment as opposed to anything bought or in a pill from are so superior.
Fermented sugars decidedly aren't anti-addictive.
Well, unless you're addicted to having a productive career, happy family, and good health. They can cure those addictions if you drink enough.
Fermented sugar is ethanol aka booze 😉
