To be fair, we're all mutants, it is just a question of what mutations we have.

[Method of Madness]

I'm quite alright with being a mutant. I'm sorry to hear that you are lactose intolerant. Have you tried almond milk? It's pretty good.

[Neko_Ali]

oooh, I'm a mutant! What super powers do I have? Can I start calling myself Milk Maid now?

[Method of Madness]

Yes. Yes, you can.

I'm (dietary) fructose intolerant. That can suck too. Especially nowadays when every company thinks it's easier to advertise something as healthy when it is sweetened with fructose instead of glucose (it's natural, it has to be good!), and other companies increase their sweetening by using mixed fructose and glucose (HFCS e.g.). Luckily this kind of intolerance is based on the ratio of fructose to glucose, so most stuff sweetened with HFCS in Germany (which usually contains less than 50% fructose) is tolerable. Most American stuff with HFCS (in Germany most notably important drinks like Mountain Dew and stuff like Canada Dry) gives me trouble though.

Also I have a tendency to forget about this. Really bad: Drinking half a litre of apple juice before realising that it probably wasn't a good idea.

Edit: I just found this sentence on the English Wikipedia article: "This can cause some surprises and pitfalls for fructose malabsorbers." 

"Surprises and Pitfalls" sounds a little bit cynical…

I'm sorry to hear that you are lactose intolerant.

It's no big. When you come from a culture where nearly everybody is lactose-intolerant, traditional dietary habits are different. And if I go with friends to an ice-cream place, I simply order a "gelato", which, in Australia, means an Italian-style water-ice.

[Method of Madness]

I'm curious, though, in a culture where nearly everybody is lactose-intolerant, do the few lactose tolerant people even know that they are? I mean, why would they even try eating dairy if there's only a 1 in 20 chance that it won't make them sick?
