Coffee fedi, help me out!
I’m getting more and more milk/lactose intolerant as I get older, but lactose free milk is too sweet for me.
I don’t sweeten my coffee, and even lactose free milk with no sweetener else makes my coffee too sweet.
So, what do I replace my milk with when I order coffee?
I used to know a guy that put butter in his coffee
I came to offer similar advice. I don’t recall whether butter is problematic for someone with a lactose intolerance, but another thing to try is ghee, also known as clarified butter.
I googled to check and found this from healthline.com
I recall that being a recommendation when doing the keto diet. That and coconut cream in coffee.
Bit of an acquired taste I think.
Who hurt him?! That sounds… interesting…
It’s a thing in South East Asia. Usually sweetened with condensed milk. Not bad actually.
Doesn’t that still have lactose anyway? Not very helpful.
Although I wonder if margarine would work the same…
Different people have different lactose intolerances. I can eat cheese or butter, but milk will run right through me. From healthline.com;
I have a really hard time with this whole thing, because I got told I’m lactose intolerance based on the results of an endoscope I underwent for (possibly) unrelated reasons. I didn’t have (or at least didn’t notice) any of the typical symptoms of lactose intolerance.
So I’ve cut out straight milk and cream, and only eat ice cream or milk/thick shakes with lactase tablets, but I still eat hard cheese the same as normal, as well as milk chocolate. And because I don’t get the runs or anything like that, I don’t really know if I should be eating the things I am.
Ultimately, your body is your body, and you kinda have to figure out how it reacts to stuff.
Margarine is just emulsified fat and stableizers
