There are a billion plus South Asians that eat a ton of dairy. Cows are even sacred.
Lactose tolerance is a very wide scale, from zero tolerance to even cheese to being able to drink multiple glasses of milk without getting diarrhea.
Based on anecdotal evidence and the seeming popularity of pizza, a lactose intolerance so great that cheese is an issue seems to be rare.
- spondylosaurus 2y agoMany cheeses contain little to no lactose, which may be a factor :) But yes, being raised in a dairy-heavy culinary culture is one predictor of continued lactose tolerance into adulthood.
