Always amusing the BS people like to claim.

This is completely different from lactose intolerance. First of all, it's a sugar, not a protein, and doesn't cause any auto immune reaction destroying your intestine. Second, most cheeses have very little lactose left, it's removed in processing leaving mostly fat. There's no health risk for them indulging on cheese, apart from possible short term discomfort.
