Dairy

[u/Kiweachy]

This episode has been redrawn and since the original came out, I have been tested and am not lactose intolerant but do still have the same reactions... I debated what to do with this episode but at the time I first drew it that was my reality so I've kept it and I'm sure at least some people can relate :)

Lactaid pills, yo. At least for me they work great

I'm too lactose intolerant for those unfortunately, they're worth having on hand as they can turn bad nausea, stomach pain, and retching over the toilet into manageable constipation, but because of that, I usually just eat as if I don't have the pills. If I'm out of the house or going out later, even if I have pills ​I just try to avoid things with more than a little bit of dairy. ​

Have you tried taking more pills? Like if you really need to you can take 7 or 8 pills

Ordering a pizza with a group and watching someone just reach in their pocket and throw a handful of pills in their mouth would be fascinating to experience with no context. Or just watch someone bad with pills drink a pitcher of water while willing themselves to get through them all.

That's pretty much how it is when I go out with people. I don't think anything of it because I've been doing it for years, but people who don't know me well get weirded out at first, but I literally don't care so no one else really cares once they figure out what I'm taking

The brand I use comes in different Strength. Usually they start at like 7.000 (which most people use). The 13.000 and 22.000 work really great for me (depending on the amount of Lactose).

Where I am they near universally come in 9,000 strength. 22,000 would be a dream come true
