Minding my own business this morning pouring my soy milk on my muesli in the canteen a co-worker decided to critisize my use of soy milk.
'Do you know more people are soy intolerant than milk intolerant' he quipped.
'I find that hard to believe' I replied, 'especially as many Asian's, Chinese & Africans are lactose intolerant. In fact I think you will find that a lot of the world's population apart from caucasian North Europeans & their descendants are lactose intolerant to some degree'
'Well most people mistakenly self diagnose themselves as lactose intolerant, when they are not' was his reply.
'Oh' I retorted, 'I am not lactose intolerant at all, merely cruelty intolerant' to which there was no reply just a grunt as he walked off!
