It involved farting all the way home. Like a puff escaping with every step walking a few blocks home. I was so damn glad to be walking late at night. And I just felt miserable with my bubbly, knotty guts the whole night and the next day.
Seriously, I love ice cream and eat as much as I can get my hands on - but nothing in the world would make we want to go through that again. So happy for lactase tablets and vegan options.
I was much slower to come to such a conclusion. Mine was yogurt parfait I would eat as a nighttime snack believing I was making a healthy choice. The next day (or sometimes before bed or during the night depending on when I ate it) I would have stomach aches, be gassy and/or bloated and just not my best. It wasn’t till another family member talked about being lactose intolerant and my eating my yogurt snack for say, lunch on my day off, that I put it all together.
It was just weird because it’s really only milk/yogurt/ice cream (cheese is usually fine) that effect me most - and I went like 20+ yrs eating dairy just fine. And yes lactase tablets are amazing.

For that I envy you lactose intolerant folk. My celiac’s disease has me violently (and painfully) vomiting if I eat any gluten. 🤮
