So interesting! I was literally on a tour of a local creamery this weekend and someone asked about raw milk. The owner said “we used to offer it, someone got sick, we got sued. It’s not worth the risk for us.”
love clicking on a random article on my explore and finding a Victorian <3 Very good essay loved it. Growing up I never knew I was lactose intolerant because every other Chinese person is too and it's just not on our radars. When I moved to Vic it took 1 lunch (spaghetti with lots of shredded cheese) in the dining hall to get me sent to the nurse's office which led to an immediate 'diagnosis' lol
thank you so much! omg victoria gang gang <3 looool yeah i got the ashkenazi lactose genes which is a real bummer since it seems to have skipped both my dad and my grandpa so i’m the weird one in the family :/
