I can't tolerate lactose on certain days. Since I can't predict when those days are (!), I mostly abstain. I have made a switch to soy cheeses, cream cheese, butter, sour cream and milk. That's NOT to say that I don't have a little dairy from time to time. I have a few bites of cheesecake after a high soluble fiber meal, as a treat. The other day I ate an entire portion of icecream at an excellent Afghani restaurant, but there was so much soluble fiber in the meal that I think the icecream snuck right by!
I can do bananas, but I can't do many other fruits and veggies raw, either. That's why I'm having a little trouble with snacks. I never was a "salty" snacker. I like the sweets!!! (I'm a chocolatier!) I'm going to have to try the AD brownies. They sound good!
