An estimated 50 million Americans may be lactose intolerant or have lactose sensitivity, making it one of the most common types of food intolerance in the country.
The result is that retailers devote a significant amount of space in their chilled dairy sections to lactose-free milk, which is in high demand. Be aware of the recent recall if you frequently use a well-known brand of lactose-free milk.
