I have a friend who is overall completely lactose intolerant. Her parents live out in the boonies and used to have a deal with a small dairy farmer where the farmer would bring his cows by their field to graze and in return they’d get some free milk.
This was raw milk, and my friend would have zero intolerance symptoms when she drank it. Weirdest thing. Eventually the farmer retired, but since they live so close to other farms, they’ll buy raw milk when they want to do a dairy based thing so my friend can participate.
So like, raw milk is weird, I saw my friend chug an entire glass and not be rootin’ tootin’ all day, no stomach pain or anything. But they’re in a very unique situation where there’s exactly two steps in the supply chain and most people are not in that situation. It’s not their standard milk, just treat now and then.
This raw milk stuff is so weird to me.

you don’t have to drink raw ass milk to deal with lactose intolerance, there’s literally lactase pills. there’s lactose free milk!
Then they weren’t lactose intolerant.
Raw milk still contains exactly the same amount of lactose.

a guy i work with can only drink raw milk too otherwise he has all kinds of problems
its also super expensive
It’s weird stuff but I don’t think it’s any kinda mass market solution.
