What other method would you deem appropriate for removing lactose from milk? A targeted enzyme that removes it seems pretty wise to me.

Since they're not gonna use tweezers, :) are you suggesting instead engineer or breed a special set of cows that don't produce lactase in their milk?

A better description would be "lactase treated" milk. In any case, I found consuming it regularly for breakfast still lead me to feel unwell over time.

However I can periodically consume dairy when I take a strong dose of lactase supplements.

From some literature it does appear that manufacturers can use "lactose free" even for non-zero amounts of lactose (10mg per 100g).

This is actually higher lactose density than many cheese varieties, especially considering I would be consuming say 150-200g of yogurt, whereas if I am eating cheese its in small careful quantity.

A2 milk not only exists but is very popular in Asia actually. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_a2_Milk_Company

What does A2 milk have to do with lactose? I don't see lactose mentioned in your link.

Its a reference to the previous comment's 'specially engineered cows' quip - these cows do exist and produce a milk that is easier to digest (but still contains lactose).

Very cool thanks for sharing
