It's not my fault! It's genetics!!


I'm also lactose intolerant and very much understand your pain, BamaVol. As a child I'd drink a glass of milk with nearly every meal and enjoyed pizza, yogurt, cream-based sauces, string cheese, ice cream... Shortly after my 18th birthday, my small intestine decide that it was done breaking down milk sugars. So those of you who aren't currently lactose intolerant, enjoy it while you can because you never know when/if your digestive system will make your meals less enjoyable.

I've come to read menus carefully and have no problem asking restaurant staff members what the ingredient of a particulate dish are. Not being near the comforts of home, I just don't order anything that does or may contain anything questionable.

I often end up packing pro-biotic pills to take with me when I travel to keep my stomach happy.

The only time I get frustrated about not being able to order and eat dairy is on UA in F. Stupid ice cream sundaes!
