    Milk isn’t the only product that contains lactose. In my opinion, a life without cheese is not a life worth living. And I know there are alternatives, but I don’t think any of them are anywhere near as delicious as cheese made from milk of cows and goats.

      Did you know casein gives cheese an addictive property? I used to wolf it down but haven’t had any in something like six years and now I can barely stand the smell.

      Goats have much lower lactose, so both goat milk and cheese are fine alternatives.

      Yogurts and cow milk based cheese also tend to be less intense, as some of the lactose is consumed when they are made, albeit some more than others.

        True! General rule of thumb I’ve noticed (although there are exceptions) is that soft cheeses fucked me up more than hard cheeses. Mozzarella destroys me, but Parmesan is nothing.
