    Apparently lemon juice is supposed to help, it has the enzyme you’re missing to help break down the lactose, I have no idea, I haven’t tried it, nor researched it, I may be sending you on a wild goose chase, or a wild poop chase, as the case may be…

    If you triple commit for two weeks your body will adjust and start to digest lactose.

    My friend showing up to my cheesesteak party without first informing me of his lactose intolerance.

    I always say that for me, consuming dairy is a sin, and its punishment is severe and instant.

    Edit; I fear no gods though. Only my guts.

    This is me this morning after my wife made mashed potato for dinner. Ive had barely any carbs in months and then this morning it was like a solid log coming out requiring a midway flush so the work toilet wouldnt clog, then followed by soft post-shit clenching to tighten my anus back up

    I can’t eat a whole slice of cheesecake without quite a bit of suffering, but I can eat half a slice and save the other half to eat the next day, and be fine.

    Lactose intolerance will not take cheesecake away from me.

    At least you figured out what causes your issue. I still haven’t figured out mine. I pretty much eat the same thing and I’m mostly good but sometimes I’m not.

      Dairy is currently free game imo. So much dairy is produced in the breeding of new generations of cows that much of it needs to be creatively disposed of. If you want to affect cows, just focus on cheap meat and ending meat subsidies. Without subsidies, consumption will drop. No one’s willing to pay full price for beef, so demand inherently shrinks.

        I remember a girl in school who said we need to eat all the pigs because where should they all live in this world

          stop killing innocent beings

          Indulge me for a second. You’re talking about an extinction event on the same scale as the Yucatán. Are you genuinely for the complete cessation of meat consumption?

              That’s an interesting, but completely unreachable goal with such enormous ramifications that I can’t find myself interested in exploring it, personally. Cutting subsidies reduces household costs via capitalism and alienates voting blocs, but societal veganism is a bit too big for me to consider
