   Maybe Clover heard me complaining loudly at cafes around Northern California that Clover milk gives Asian immigrants massive diarrhea and cafes should look for other options

   Finally they are doing something about it!

     The leading theory is that Clover has many Holstein cows, and many people can’t process the A1 milk proteins produced by those cows. Even though France and Australia also uses Holstein cows, they also have other types of cows so I was never sick with their milk.

     In fact I am not intolerant of any lactose or dairy except to Clover in California

     @gcvsa I’ve had Asian American friends do experiments where they switch to A2 milks and they’ve all been able to drink dairy for the first time. I know I don’t get sick with it

     @skinnylatte Huh. That's super interesting. I've never heard of this distinction between proteins in milk. I am lactose-tolerant, although my father wasn't, and my brother isn't, and I think my niece is intolerant, as well. I evidently take more after our German-English mother, and my siblings after our Filipino father.
