I like cheese. I like it a lot. I would happily eat it plain without any crackers, bread, or chips.
This summer, I became lactose intolerant. Cheese, milk, chocolate, and cookies are no longer alright for me to eat. But then there’s more stuff that I hadn’t even considered as containing dairy: hot dogs, bread, Asian food… Things that I can’t even fathom why dairy would be added. I have to be careful about eating anything.
And it bothers me. I can’t eat the things I want to because someone decided extraneous ingredients were needed. My personal favorite being “lactose” on the ingredients; not even bothering for milk or whey.
And there’s lots of people that can’t eat certain foods. Heaven forbid a person have a corn allergy in America; the stuff is everywhere.
