Never actually seen any besides the cream cheese at Trader Joe’s. Going to keep an eye out now

Certain cheese (mainly hard cheese) is theoretically zero lactose due to fermentation using it up, but I find that even most hard cheeses give me a reaction.

I have a history of psychosomatic reactions to food, though. For example I couldn’t eat beef, chicken, or pork for years after several food poisoning incidents in quick succession. Even though I knew the reaction was all in my head, the physical effects still happened. Super frustrating.

However I have had 2 incidents where I had GI symptoms occur after eating something containing dairy where I didn’t know until I looked at the ingredients list, so I know it’s not 100% in my head.

To my fellow LI sufferers I encourage you to experiment with hard cheeses, as there’s plenty of people who have documented their success with those! :)

(Just do it on a day where you have a bathroom always available, lol.)

this is why at the end of the day I hope we invent Star Trek replicators

and allergy cures

😬 now that’s a rough time. Perfect Day does disclaim milk allergenic on their website but I have no idea if they require their clients to include that on their consumer product packaging.

Surprising (and frustrating) that they didn’t use a properly deodorized grade of oil. Do you mind sharing which products you tried? I’m curious

The foodtech will use yeast as hosts to initially produce casein and whey protein, two of the main proteins found in milk.

Bioreacted casein would be a HUGE leap for cow-free dairy. I remember when Perfect Day started up they were having too much trouble producing casein, so their products couldn’t be used to make stringy or melty cheese.

As a former cheese addict who developed severe lactose intolerance, I’ll just be waiting here for the synthetic cheese. (Please. I miss pain-free cheese so much 😭)

Apologies for the bad thumbnail quality. Not sure what happened. I tried to upload one that was pretty high res so the server may have panicked and squished it.

This hole is fun!

love a good necromancy-on-an-ancient-mummy of a meme

I hate functional mentally healthy adults!
please

I misread this as “Chances of being born in each Connecticut” and while I know humans are fond of naming places after existing places, I’d be surprised if every continent has a place officially named Connecticut

“the only solution is being responsible” well fuck guess I’m SOL

instructions unclear, my prescription erased my appetite and now all my food goes bad

I wonder if you could get a better flavor profile by brewing tea with hot coffee rather than brewing and adding separately (possibly not due to temperature and osmotic pressure)

I was like “this reminds me of Hardcore Henry, badass!” and lo and behold Ilya Naishuller is both the director and in this band

i have just discovered something cool ty

as someone who has spent time living in Philly what were they THINKING lmfao

doubtless some of the gay male and asexual scientists would get distracted by fashion ideas for the boob havers

“I know we’re supposed to be gathering data rn but like have you ever tried a bullet bra? Cuz you have the perfect breast tissue shape and proportions to fucking rock that shit. Oh you’re in a Madonna cover band!? That rules, when are you playing next!?”

and thus the research is once again derailed, even non sexually

solution: assign gay male and/or asexual scientists

6 or so. I’m clinically depressed, but also I’m middle class in a first world country ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

here to rep “through the magic of having a broken one…!”
