Look, some people just can't digest it. As you get older, your ability to process mac'n'cheese without dire intestinal consequences drops off substantially. The pros just simply aren't worth the cons, not by a long shot.
Doesn't stop me tho
As you get older, you develop taste and stop eating garbage.
There are varieties of mac'n'cheese other than Kraft
Lmao gourmet mac n' cheese 😍
Oven baked Mac and cheese with bread crumb topping really is that good
Your poor toilet bowl.....
that doesn't make it not good though.
Note "Doesn't stop me tho"
Huh, I didn't know about this. What ingredient(s) cause(s) the problem?
Lactose
Why must some people be so intolerant of the lactose people??? Racists....
Does everyone become lactose intolerant with age?
Lactose intolerance is more common than lactose tolerance globally. In the unites states, something like 1 in 3 people are lactose intolerant.
It's largely genetic. Lactose tolerance can be traced to nomadic tribes that kept milk producing animals as a food source, adapting to tolerate lactose in their diet over time.
But I didn't know it happened with age
Of course it is with age. No mammals are born lactose intolerant. We drink milk as infants.
Almost universally, all adult mammals become lactose intolerant. We humans are lucky for those of us who tolerant.
Sure, but I figured that lactose intolerance would typically manifest before the age of, say, 20. I didn't realize that people could become lactose intolerant as seniors.
