Contrary to popular belief, being 100% Korean does in fact have a few draw-backs. I know. But, some of us can't drink alcohol. My brother's ears and puff up and his face turns bright red after a few sips of a Captain and Coke. More of us, however, are Lactose Intolerant. Think about it. Other than Yak milk, just how many dairy cows are there in Asia? (This is not based on any fact. Only funny. So, yuk it up, punk.)
Knowing that the monster in my belly needs Calcium, I have kicked my intake into high gear. Despite the gassy effects, I have been eating Broccoli by the barrel. I am a huge Soy fan, so that has been easy. But, imagine - to my surprise, I have been craving dairy.
Dairy products are foods and drinks comprised of the baby food produced by and meant for another SPECIES, people. Consuming them is like feeding your breast milk to your cat. Or, worse, feeding cheese made from your breast milk to your dog to assist with its daily allergy medications. Yuck!
Regardless, I have been craving them. Being Lactose Intolerant is not helpful. Today, I ate a 1/4 of a block of Colby. It was delicious and went well with my fiber select crackers.
And now, I have heartburn. And I feel like someone cut me open and put a small boulder in my stomach before sewing me back up.
I think I'll stick to my special yogurts and flatulence producing veggies. Moo.
REVIEW: Dairy products. Heartburn. Boulder.
