Looks as though people have discovered lactose-free milk.

Just got back from the supermarket. It was fairly well-stocked. The only things I wasn't able to find were toilet paper and lactose-free milk. There was plenty of regular milk though. Lactose-free milk lasts A LOT longer than regular milk and I'm thinking that, maybe, people have figured that out.

It does not taste watery or like low-fat or skim.

when all reg milk was out... sort of a conflict about it, since i'd be depriving

I think it tastes the same as regular milk. I buy Lactaid brand. It doesn't seem tasteless to me. I love it. I had avoided milk for years because I am lactose intolerant.

lactose intolerant so i eat/drink dairy everyday .. hell, ice cream is a food group in my family... i guess i'm used to lactose flavor, so it's missing and i miss it
i normally buy 2% but i don't buy the fat free other dairy product

i bought fairlife.. mixing it has worked for me

...and didn't care for it at all. Don't know if it was the lack of lactose or just their particular recipe but the ice cream had no taste. I was surprised because their milk tastes fine to me.
