Funny, for me it’s the other way around, i have a mild soy allergy. (I get a sore throat and what feels like rashes, but on the inside.)
Do these people also only eat plain boiled rice for fear of soy sauce?
The rice in general might be too exotic for them
Imagine not enjoying fried rice…
Then you take it black, like my heart.
But black coffee and espresso are two completely different things. Are you suggesting instead they get an Americano?
No, you can easily take espresso-based beverages “black”, too. Or rather, you can easily make them not-black by adding milk, which is pretty common for americanos.
Sure, but then you’re taking it in small cup form rather than as a larger volume drink. That still makes them two very different things.
If I want a nice, large margarita, telling me I can have a couple shots of tequila misses the point. Nothing against tequila, but a mixed drink and a shot are different enough that one is not a substitute for another.
Same with espresso. Americano is much closer in form factor to a latte than straight espresso. And more to my post’s point, most times when people say black coffee they mean drip.
The americanos I’ve had were about the same volume as a regular filter coffee. And even if there was a difference in volume, it wouldn’t matter - “black” vs “with milk” only refers to whether you add any amount of milk.
Filter coffee. Only way to have it.
I’ll go as far as Turkish coffee, but Americano doesn’t taste good at all.
Yeah the americano is an example of what our people had to put up with saving Europe from itself.
In a few years I imagine y’all’ll get a European style coffee which is just reduced pour over and you’ll hate that like nobody’s business, but you dealt with it to save some Canadian bacon
Average boy who eats soy
helya
Real milk contains mammal estrogen instead of just the plant kind.
Only soy boys say “tummy”.
Or anybody with young children. 😊
Fuck. You got me there.
Fuck.
That’s how I got there too. 😏
Fellas, is it gay to impregnate a woman?
According to Andrew Tate, no. But, for any other reason, yes. 🙄
I’m allergic to milk. Trying to explain that to people sometimes goes like this:
“I’m allergic to milk.”
“You mean you’re lactose intolerant?”
“No, I’m allergic to milk. I can digest it just fine.”
“What do you mean?”
“Milk. I’m allergic to it.”
“What happens when you drink it?”
“My throat starts to swell up and get itchy. It’s hard to breathe for a while.”
“OOOOOH. You’re allergic to milk.”
“Yeah.”
An acquaintance of mine will literally die from anaphylactic shock if he ingests anything with even traces if milk…think severe peanut allergy, but for milk. It’s not the lactose, it’s some protein in it or something, and fucking everything contains traces of milk.
God damn, pour one out for your friend, that’s an incredibly rough allergy. Hopefully they have some reliably milk-free food sources.
EDIT: specifically pour out the glass of milk for your friend they might accidently drink it.
Me too! Last time I had a reaction the hives lasted for 8 hours.
Hey! Me too.
Cows milk only. I can enjoy goat and sheep.
You leave those Goats and Sheep alone!
I can enjoy goat and sheep.
Like… blended up?
Also that, yes.
No, biblically.
Ketchup or mustard?
Btw, is there a evolutionary cost to creating lactase? Because, why do we stop with it usually and only keep it if it has huge advantages?
I would guess that humans have been around for what, 250k years? And that the vast majority of that didn’t involve a whole lot of milk after age 4.
So it wouldn’t have been to much advantage to be able to metabolize lactose.
No, there is, you get more from your cattle, and on a individual level, less likely to starve.
Keeping Lactase happened at least twice; north europe and a group in west africa.
Sure, if you a) keep mammals around and b) drink their milk. I’m not convinced domesticated animals have been a thing for all that long, evolutionarily. Long enough for some groups to have adapted, sure. We have adaptations for cooked food, too.
[Searches] Cattle probably around 10k years ago.
Saudi Arabia too. I assume that camel milk came in pretty handy in early tribes surviving the deserts.
Yes. It costs calories and nutrients.
But why then creating lactose in milk at all? Fat alone doesn’t suffice?
It’s easy to break down into glucose, which is important for bodily functions. Gluconeogenesis is a thing, but it is inefficient.
I put soy milk in my coffee so I can pretend I’m becoming a girl because of the (phyto)estrogen.
There is actual estrogen in milk from other mammals
I don’t understand why you’d drink a soy caffè latte, because I don’t understand why you’d drink a caffè latte, because I don’t understand why you’d drink any type of coffee.
this post offends me, but at the same time, good point lmao
Same bro. Same.
Literally skill issue
me taking points out of constitution to distribute amongst my other attributes:
Completely wild to shit on soy milk in coffee.
Like, if you’re trying to be toxic about your coffee, how do you even justify diluting the coffee with milk in the first place? Can’t even do toxicity properly, get real
I do barley coffee with oat milk called “not milk”.
It’s f—in’ barleh!
Since plant based milks are just basically water with the plant stuff in it, can’t we make coffee milk and put that in our coffee as a milk alternative?
My sibling in Christ, that’s just coffee
Look if somehow I can get a latte made with coffee milk … I need this.
No, coffee is burnt coffee milk. We need actual raw coffee milk.
Nut milk comes from male cows.
I didn’t realize I was lactose intolerant for the longest time. I just assumed everyone had some food that gave them the booboos and it was just the price of living. I thought intolerance was synonymous with allergy, and since it didn’t kill me, I just assumed I didn’t have it.
How I found out:
Me: I sure do love ice cream. Sucks that it makes me stomach hurt.
Friend: So you’re lactose intolerant?
Me: Oh, no, no. Ice cream and milk have just always messed up my stomach.
Friend:
Me:
Friend: That’s what lactose intolerance is.
A ton of adults legitimately don’t know that most people develop some degree of lactose intolerance as they age. They think lactose intolerance is like a rare disorder rather than the norm for mammals. It feels like the kind of thing they should have taught us in health class.
“Around your mid 20s you should pay attention to if milk makes you fart a lot.”
Same with my younger brother. He once told me that he has diarrhea least one time a day. He tought that this is a completely normal thing and is not willing to change anything. He would rather shit his pants than give up milk.
I thought everyone was dealing with it. Like, mine happens to be ice cream, someone else gets mudbutt from chicken wings or something. But we keep going because flavor demands sacrifice.
Turns out that was not the case. 🙃
I thought itchy mouth from bananas, walnuts and avocado was part of their flavor profile until I was like 30.
In my mid 20s I was informed that most people don’t find it less easy to breathe after binging carrots. Still never had anaphylaxis and a bit are fine, but yeah I’m supposed to avoid them now
You sure you’re not eating poison hemlock roots? They look a lot like carrots…

I’m in my 30s and before last year I hadn’t realised you’re not supposed to be able to be taste your meal hours after eating it.
Tried going gluten and dairy free. Never knew I had a sixpack instead of a balloon. It’s not been easy I’d kill for a nice carbonara or a pizza or a cheeseburger. Cheeseburgers. A pile. American sized pile pls. A döner roll with feta.
But theres wheat and dairy in fucking everything.
Still, I am much better. Considering.
