Yeah like this would eliminate a very large amount of cheese. Like some just isn't meant to be melted at all
You are correct. It's a texture thing, I really don't know what the issue is because I'd love to be able to enjoy a full charcuterie board for example but instead I just eat the meat, biscuits etc

Is it so bad that you can't even have like really sharp cheddars? My lactose intolerant relatives have little to no problems with it.
so no, mines not super bad, and it's mostly soft/melted cheeses thst I have an issue with.

I always used to get belly issues after eating cheese ravioli, and maybe I'm dumb, but I never made the connection at all, I love pasta, and I dunno, it just didn't cross my mind.

then last year I had some with some one, got really REALLY sick that night, and she was like "hey did you know that the type of Jew we are has like an 80% chance of being lactose intolerant?"

and I kinda went fuck.

so I take lactaid before anything like that now, pizza, ice cream, mac and cheese, and I'm usually mostly okay after.

Okay yeah, that's not too bad. Similar to my wife and most of our friends (Asians also have a high chance of being lactose intolerant).

I had heard thst, yeah. it sucks, I was never a "huge" cheese eater, but I love pizza and raviolis and mac and cheese and a few other dairy heavy things, and the fact that I can't really eat it "casually" kinda sucks.

example: Tom and I were in New York and we wanted to eat at a famous pizzeria. I literally left him in line to run to CVS to get lactaid because I didn't have any on me.

it sucks.

@Cole do you do the whole weighing up whether it's worth the Lactaid or not? That's what my fiance does, "oh it's good ice cream I'll have Lacteeze" "oh it's just cheese in a sandwich, I'll take it out"
so fortunately I don't *love* ice cream, so that at least is never a huge issue.

otherwise it's usually dinner foods that I make with cheese, and that's easy enough to "prepare" for.

usually cheese on a sandwich won't bother me, but for example, a grilled cheese or a bacon egg and cheese sometimes can.
 
I've found out that low 90% lean meat tends to be more affordable too. 80s are just too fatty imo and high 90s end up being expensive and fairly dry. But yeah. I'm no dietician so I just listen to the wife who has hopefully listened to one.
well shit, if it's cheaper, more power to you.
I learned last year that I'm lactose intolerant. so
I'd almost like to be lactose intolerant. Just drink a glass of milk every day so I can shit every day...

I don't really like the texture of cheese on its own either. It's okay on a cracker or something else crunchy though, with more cracker than cheese.

@Fool's Requiem, @Kat

I mostly drink fresh brewed iced tea with lemon or I use unsweetened drink mixes. On rare occasions I get a craving for a soda or it might come with a combo meal and that's when I add a bit of water and de-fizzafy it. I like the taste but I'm not a fan of highly effervescent or overly sweet beverages which any sodas I get are due to sugar substitutes (I'm diabetic.)

I hope you know I'm just teasing you. You can do whatever you want to your fizzy sugar water.

I have a soda stream, and I like it because I can make the water extra extra fizzy with it and just add a bit of lime. Regular soda (even with real sugar) is definitely way too sweet.

Here's another quirk of mine, I actually like some lumps in my oatmeal, cream of rice and mashed potatoes. I also like the rubbery skin that forms on pudding. Oh yeah, and I always let my marshmallow Peeps get a little stale before I eat them. 😋

I eat watermelon and grapefruit with salt

But that's probably the tamest food crime

I only eat cornbread with milk. Not with a glass of milk, either. I put my cornbread in a bowl, drown it with milk and then mush it up. It is the ONLY way

Lastly, I like to spread laughing cow cheese on my bananas

I always put poundcake in a bowl and covered it with milk, then ate it with a spoon.

I like to smoosh my ice cream until it's almost melted.

What’s wrong with ketchup on a hot dog?
a bunch of nerds decided it was sacrilege for some reason.

it's the only thing I put on a hot dog.

the last time I was in NYC I got a street dog, and I was expecting to get some new york bullshit if I asked for ketchup, but the guy just goes "ketchup?" I go "yup" and that was it.

though he did put more ketchup than j like. I'm a "single line down the middle" kind of of guy, and he basically gave me ketchup with a side of bread and meat, but whatever.

What’s wrong with ketchup on a hot dog?
Given the chance to break bread with President Obama, what would you ask the leader of the free world? Easy, says chef and TV food personality Anthony Bourdain:

"I said 'Look, Mr. President, as a Chicagoan, as a true Chicagoan, is it ever acceptable to put ketchup on a hot dog?' And I mean, anybody else, or anyone running for office, would say 'Well, you know to each their own …' He said, 'No. Never.' After the age of 8 he said, after that an intervention is required. And I agree. I think there is a time and a place for ketchup and I don't think the hot dog is one of them. That's just my opinion."
Enough said.

This is the same guy that asked for dijon mustard for a fucking hamburger, if you'll recall. I'd trust him to be my barbecued meats condiment guy just as much as I'd trust him to be my fireworks guy at my Middle East wedding.

Chicago is already wrong about pizza, we can add hotdogs to the list as well
Chicago hot dogs are the best; now as far as pizza goes, nothing beats a good old....

I didn't expect to, but I like Chicago-style pizza.

What do they put on hot dogs in Chicago?

Dijon mustard on a hamburger sounds pretty good.
