Yeah, if I recall, they wised up about 5 years ago or so.

You may also want to try the lactaid pills (fast-acting lactase enzyme), they're a life-saver IMO, and usually found in pharmacies next to other digestive aids like Beano and Pepto-Bismol, though since they're generic they don't tend to get good placement.

Oh, yes I have been doing so for about.....10 years already. :-) It's the only way I feel safe eating at restaurants. The problem is always trying to guess how many you need for a given meal....and learning the hard way when you're wrong.

Yeah, then you gotta deal with relatives that assure there's no dairy in the meal they prepared, so you trust them and don't take a lactaid pill, only to start feeling things churning and find out later that they don't consider margarine to be dairy, despite the fact you've told them it's dairy for most brands.

On the bright side I've now found plenty of margarine types that don't have dairy in them for my own use, and anything labeled parve is dairy free, makes those kosher labels useful for something, as long as you can distinguish the kosher parve labels from the kosher dairy labels.

Again, has anybody actually submitted this? I will if no-one else does.
