        They’re not fully effective for those of us who like really really intolerant of that delicious, forbidden lactose.

          They’re not very effective and I’m not even very intolerant.

            Well it’s people like you that make lactose intolerance a constant problem you can’t put up with it you have to say no I will not tolerate it the more we let it get by the more it’s going to push back against us this is how we got in the mess in the first place

        Yes, but they’re not heat stable, so you have to specifically remember to bring some with you and can’t just leave them in a hot car. They also don’t work with everything. Something like pizza, where the lactose is trapped inside the cheese, still causes problems even with lactase pills.

        i usually avoid dairy but sometimes i just have the craving to have a cheesy pizza, or a big cappuciono, i have yet to remember to buy those whenever that happens, i rarely go over board to start having stomach cramps so usually i just feel weak and fart a lot for the rest of the day

          I have a friend who is obsessed with cheese and is highly lactose intolerant. He eats lactase pills like tic tacs and has about three packs on him at all times.

            Yeah if you’re cooking for yourself. But most restaurants aren’t using vegan cheese yet.

        it’s not the same :(

        whenever i drink milk it’s always full fat milk, it’s the milkiest. No plant milk can compare with the fullness of its taste

        Plant milk doesn’t normally have the same level of fullness (in technical terms, it doesn’t have such a pronounced body), and also introduces alternate taste, so it’s not good for everything, unfortunately.

        Some of the oat milk does have a more pronounced body in my experience, but such oat milk normally has intense oatmeal taste. Coconut milk is on the other extreme, it is commonly very empty, but also introduces little taste of its own.
