Simply Divine

As you know, I was diagnosed with lactose intolerance about two years ago. Since that time I have eaten NO ice cream, cheese, cream cheese, pudding, cottage cheese, cheese burgers, cheese cake, pumpkin pie made with milk (or any other great dessert made with milk or milk product). I have adjusted. I eat more fruit for my sweet tooth, but in the summer time truly miss ice cream.
Joy of joys. Rice Dream makes fake ice cream as does a company called Good Karma that puts out a product called Organic Rice Divine. I'm in heaven. Ate a pint of the Rice Divine last night. Wasn't too impressed with the Rice Dream product.

Try Haagen-Dazs icecream. Guaranteed to cure what ails you. Contains no fat, sugar, calories,cholesterol, etc.

Yes but it does contain MILK. My gut does not deal with lactose. That is what would "cure" me, right? Eat Lactose full foods and check out. I get it.

Can't you take a tums for the gas?

It is much more than gas. It is extreme pain. Do you have a Hyatal hernia? When it acts up you think you are having a heart attack. Milk affects me much the same way. I used to gobble Tums by the container full. To no avail. Stop yogurt and milk and ice cream, presto, no pains.
Thanks for asking.
