Lactose in enough quantities gets my tummy rumbling in a bad way so I’m trying out alternatives.

Oat milk in hipster coffee drinks is pretty good.

Soy milk as a protein and calcium beverage is fine. Tastes OK.

There is lactose-free milk too but that is still suspect. Either it’s not all the way lactose free or too much of any kind of dairy quakes my intestines.

    I’ll keep an eye out for that. I am trying to put on weight so I do end up eating a lot of fat. Maybe I switch them out for more carbs.

      I’ve tried a few different diets for the opposite reason.

      Fat alone makes me feel stuffed and not wanting to eat enough.

      Carbs+fat makes it really easy for me to eat too much.

      I seem to recall that fat intake is not as “fattening” as carb intake. Both the carbs and fat you eat are used for energy first, which means that your body has to process the fats into carbs first - which takes energy itself. The surplus of either is converted and stored as fat.
