People with food intolerances often say that they have aversions to the
offending food. I have never liked milk, cream, ice cream, whipped cream,
cream cheese, or yogurt. But I have liked some cottage cheese and other
cheeses. Oddly though, I also used to like creamed chipped beef and sausage
gravy.
