Some humans have adapted to processing dairy - actually lactose in dairy - after the weaning period. "Certain human populations have a mutation on chromosome 2 which eliminates the shutdown in lactase production, making it possible for members of these populations to continue consumption of fresh milk and other dairy products throughout their lives without difficulty." There is speculation that this genetic adaption occured about 4000-4500 BC
