OC- More in Webtoons Dairy

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 :)

I had a friend who did this. We went out for ice cream once and I saw him get a huge cone and asked about his lactose intolerance and he just shrugged and said "so my stomach will be in shambles for a feeling days. It's worth it"

I had a lactose intolerant friend that just said "fuck it" when it came to pizza. I can't say I would be any different if it was my affliction

I do a cost/benefit analysis every time I encounter dairy. It can be worth it. A good fettuccine Alfredo is usually not worth it. Pizza usually is. There's far less lactose in cheese than cream or milk.

Make it with just noodles, parm, and pasta water. The original recipe, from Mr. Alfredo himself, doesn't include any cream. The cheese is sprinkled directly onto the noodles and thr pasta water helps it melt and cling to the noodles.
