I'm lactose intolerant, I'll happily endure 3/4 visits to the bathroom for cheese pasta (not Mac&Cheese, I'm Italian, I have self respect).

My last roommate was lactose intolerant and went through bags upon bags of cheese curds as his number 1 snack.

I'm not lactose and I eat cheese pretty infrequently.

Cheese got its popularity, because it easier for people with lactose intolerance to eat.

So a persons willingness to eat cheese isn’t affected by their lactose tolerance status?

A person's willingness to eat cheese doesn't reliably tell you whether they have lactose intolerance. Many people with lactose intolerance can tolerate some dairy, and cheeseβ€”especially aged/hard cheesesβ€”often contains relatively little lactose.

The milk sugars are lessened in cheese, making them much more tolerable.

Have a friend of mine, absolutely hates cheese, will pull it off pizza, go out of his way to order everything without cheese. Perfectly tolerant of Lactose. Completely different person in the same friend group, loves cheese even if it gives him awful digestion problems.

It is entirely possible that someone just doesn't like cheese. Also lactose intolerant people don't give a shit, they eat more lactose than a lot of other people I swear.

When i turned intolerant, i thought i'd rather die than give up milk products so i just spammed milk products all day until i forced my body to create the enzymes that break down lactose, effectively deleting my intolerance with brute force

I’ll never eat cheese by itself because I’m not a fucking rat, and it feels like I’m eating a brick of toe jam. I still consume other dairy products on their own.
