I am curious about what happens in your country when somebody is lactose intolerant. Such as what foods are common in certain regions diets and what are the alternatives, or what foods are just given up? How do diets in e.g., Nordic or Mediterranean, compare in terms of dairy usage and variety?
Partly asking from curiosity, and partly asking due to myself being recently learning I'm intolerant and wanting to learn of more foods, diets or cuisine. I am also from the state of Wisconsin which is known for its diary products and is hard to avoid here.
Any recommended foods/dishes or cuisines that fare well for people who avoid dairy?
