How come Norwegian lactose-free milk from Tine tastes amazing; whilst Dutch lactose free milk tastes like a sweaty elk’s crotch?

  1. Perhaps sweaty elk’s crotch is considered a delicacy in the netherlands

  3. In Norway we have a saying, smaken er som baken. Maybe the Dutch just like swaety elk’s crotch?

  4. The breakdown of lactose releases glucose. If left unfiltered, you get a sweeter milk.

  5. If it’s UHT (AKA ultra pasteurized) treated then that’s the reason. Tines lactose free milk is just pasteurized.

  6. Funfact: cultivating bacteria in your stomach that breaks down lactose without creating much gas can make lactose intolerance way better in many cases. If interested Google “lactose intolerance Kefir”.

  7. How do you know that it doesnt tastes like a sweaty elk’s crotch? Maybe our elk’s have different sweaty crotches than your elks.

  8. now im curious… how many Elk crotches have you licked?

  10. So, Norway has two kinds of non-laxctose milk. Lactose reduced milk has lactase added, which is the easier and cheaper option, but produces a very sweet milk. This is also the method I have found all milk in other countries uses. The milk tastes far too sweet to me.

    Tine also sells lactose free, where the lactose apparently is split/handled differently, because it tastes almost exactly like regular milk. This I have not found anywhere abroad, even though I have looked. I really, really hope Tine does not stop making it an any time.

  11. 1. Maybe the Netherlands use elk sweat?
    2. How do you know that taste? 

  13. Maybe because they don’t mix sweat from an elks crotch into the milk?

    That’s a terrible idea – wouldn’t recommend

  14. I felt the same visiting my family in Germany. It was so nasty 😭

  16. OP how do you know what sweaty elk crotch taste like? what are you doing in the forests?
