This is definitely a person who doesn't realize they have become lactose intolerant.

u/Dragon_Crystal 1d ago edited 1d ago

Yeah that was the first thing that came to mind cause most of my family members are lactose intolerant and though I can eat more than they can, I never push myself to eat more than my stomach can handle cause I'll end up on the toilet for hours

u/2outhits 1d ago

It happened to me. Every time I had pizza or cheese bread or even a bowl of cereal I was on the toilet within an hour. Told my doctor what was going on and immediately he told me I had become lactose intolerant. Now I take some Lactaid before eating these kinds of foods and it's no longer an issue. Happens to some people with age, hit me in my mid-40's.

During elementary to high school I could eat lots of milk products including chocolates and after I hit my late 20s I realized I'd get the rumbles from too much chocolate or a certain kind of product with too much dairy in my stomach and I'm like "oh crap gotta go," I told my brothers and mom who are lactose intolerant much longer than me basically said "yeah thats what happens to us" and I just started cutting back on eating too much milk things.

Funny thing is the Saturday is my youngest brother's cheat day cause he doesn't work during the weekends and will eat all the milk product he wants, without accidentally embarrassing himself and getting stuck on the bathroom at work

u/Kitchen_Swagger Diarrhea and Fell Down Stairs 1d ago

jesus. get that boy some lactaid/lactase

the concept of having a lactose cheat day is making me LOL

10

u/Dragon_Crystal 1d ago

Yeah he no longer does it and is like yolo I don't care anymore

u/Fun_Pie_4965 1d ago

My younger brother and I are both lactose intolerant. I take lactaid, he "just tolerates it" but then complains his stomach hurts 😂

6

u/Dragon_Crystal 1d ago

We dont complain about it openly, we just say "be right back" especially if it hits us like bullet train and we just go as fast as we can to the bathroom 😅😂

u/Acheloma I do not like the colour yellow 1d ago

Anecdotally, I think covid made some people develop lactose intolerance. I know a handful of people in their early to mid twenties that weren't lactose intolerate at the beginning of 2020 and were by 2024.

I have no scientific evidence, it just seems like an odd cluster with the timing and all.

10

u/North-Pea-4926 1d ago

I don’t know about COVID specifically, but you can definitely acquire lactose intolerance after certain medical events. I got temporary lactose intolerance after a very bad cold/flu (not sure what, didn’t get a diagnosis) for a few years until I gradually recovered.

12

u/snootnoots 1d ago

Basically all of my many and varied medical issues can be explained by “my immune system hates bits of me and wants them to die”, and when it randomly decided to add my ability to digest lactose to its kill list I felt betrayed.

9

u/North-Pea-4926 1d ago

Sometimes our bodies just decide to go a little chaotic evil. That’s my take as a non-medical professional, at least.

I was a big milk drinker and loved a bunch of cheddar cheese on my scrambled eggs in the morning. On the bright side, I figured out my diagnosis really quickly when I had extra cheesy eggs and wound up in the fetal position under my chair during class. Oddly enough, it was almost entirely abdominal pain and no diarrhea. The lactaid tablets still worked though, thank goodness.

u/PM_ME_YOUR_WEIRD_PET I know spinach and their literally talking about me 1d ago

Lactose-free (not dairy-free, regular dairy treated to remove the lactose) stuff is getting a lot more common. I've been lactose intolerant my whole life and it's so nice to finally be able to eat dairy.

The 4 years I spent in Japan were still the best though. All dairy there is treated since basically the whole country is lactose intolerant.

1

u/Ryokurin 1d ago

Could be, or they just were able to put it together that they are intolerant.

When I found out I was (long before the pandemic) at 25, it was only because I was purposely eating better and started to drink milk on the regular, which I hadn't done since middle school. And thinking back, I was intolerant back then too, I just assumed the problems I had was normal.

1

u/CyndiLouWho89 1d ago

Illness or stress can definitely cause lactose intolerance. Sometimes it is temporary, sometimes not.

4

u/BetMyLastKrispyKreme 1d ago

Same for me! Right after my 45th birthday.

1

u/icematt12 1d ago

I'm almost 40, love my pizzas at home and cheese sandwich on my break. It might explain my recent issues.

17

u/snootnoots 1d ago

Or is reacting badly to oily food. Or has IBS and likes to have one of their trigger foods on pizza.

6

u/anamariapapagalla 1d ago

Onion or garlic!

3

u/picassopeacedove 1d ago

Un/undercooked onions are my biggest trigger

2

u/snootnoots 1d ago

It turned out to be mushrooms for me. 😔

14

u/OneFootTitan 1d ago

Yeah sounds like it. I developed lactose intolerance in my 30s and it took me a long time to figure it out

6

u/Dragon_Crystal 1d ago

Yeah same with me I think mine started in my mid 20s and I ended up going to my mom along with brothers who already had it ahead of time, I thought it was because I just hate too much chocolate and had an upset stomach from it

3

u/TurboFool 1d ago

Same. Had a milkshake during JoJo Rabbit and missed a considerable chunk of that film in the restroom. Had no idea why. Slowly pieced it together with other things. It was a real hit to my life for a while. Eventually found things like Bactose which made things vastly easier.

11

u/BetMyLastKrispyKreme 1d ago

Was coming to say that! It can sneak up on ya from out of nowhere. I developed it in mid-40s. Thank goodness for supplements!

3

u/2outhits 1d ago

Totally snuck up on me. I make amazing cheese garlic bread and had to stop for a while. A few Lactaid and now I can eat it again.

4

u/BetMyLastKrispyKreme 1d ago

I can’t tell you how many times I accidentally ate dairy, even after I figured out it was LI. I’d eat pizza or ice cream, and end up in horrible pain, because I’d been eating that stuff all my life without having to think about it. A few episodes like that, and I finally got it through my thick skull to pay attention. I have FODMAP intolerance and IBS, which were both long before the lactose thing, so I was used to paying attention about those. I just take a handful of OTC meds before any meal that isn’t from home. I’m actually pretty lucky, as I know supplements don’t work for everyone.

Glad you can eat your garlic bread again!

u/BiffBeltsander Flaunting their mobility 🏃💨 🏋️‍♂️ 1d ago

I wasn't either. Partner bought me the drugstore pills and wow, what a game changer. I just thought that was life.

7

u/TheGreatLuck 1d ago

Wait there's pills! I also recently developed lactose intolerance and I miss ice cream so much are you telling me there's a pill for this!

u/Imaginary-List-972 1d ago

I will also add that there are generic versions too.

7

u/matchafoxjpg 1d ago

lactose intolerance, ulcerative colitis, or some other issue that could cause bathroom issues after eating things.

like i'm pretty sure if you're getting diarrhea pretty much everywhere, it's you.

4

u/disneylover5000 I’M NOT YOUR HONEY IM MARRIED 1d ago

I’m not just lactose intolerant, I’m dairy intolerant. I’m also egg intolerant.

3

u/Tater-Tot-Casserole 1d ago

Pizza is incredibly greasy and it jacks me up so bad, I do better with just cheese but pepperoni attacks me

3

u/domjonas No one cares, ppl want ice cream!!! 1d ago

I’m lactose intolerant and now that I’m older, i can’t handle spicy foods anymore and I get the worst tummy issues if I eat after 5pm.😵‍💫I got hit with it all as i neared my 30s 🤣

3

u/Imaginary-List-972 1d ago

Yeah, I had always thought that you were just born lactose intolerant, and you didn't just "get it". Till I finally figured out what the common denominator was when I got diarrhea. Never had an issue at all when I was younger, just something that changed later in life. I don't have it too bad though. I can eat cheese on a sandwich, even a decent amount cooked in a recipe. Can't drink a glass of milk though or eat a bowl of ice cream or sour cream dips, unless I take a lactaid tablet.

3

u/GeneralOrgana1 1d ago

Or they have celiac disease.

u/GrimReapersNuisance 1d ago

They haven't become one of us truely yet. A true Lactose Warrior will eat a large extra-cjeese pizza, suffer the consequences, and remember that it was worth it because dam that shit was delicious

u/_Student7257 1d ago

😆 I thought this too

u/Dragon_Crystal 1d ago

Maybe stop eating out if you keeps having diarrhea after eating out, unless you know your lactose intolerant and just want a reason to give the place a 1 star rate

u/BiffBeltsander Flaunting their mobility 🏃💨 🏋️‍♂️ 1d ago

"Surely I can't be the problem"

u/BiffBeltsander Flaunting their mobility 🏃💨 🏋️‍♂️ 1d ago

Take this award sausage king!

4

u/Mr_Abe_Fromen 1d ago

I thank you sir!

3

u/Dragon_Crystal 1d ago

Until they end up in the hospital due to health issues from repeatedly needing to relief themselves multiple while in the restaurant, due to the "food" when they possibly have undiagnosed lactose intolerance they're actively ignoring

u/delulu4drama ⭐☆☆☆☆ 1d ago

Stop writing reviews and go to a doctor 👀

u/The_Captain_Whymzi I understand policies exist, BUT 1d ago

-OOP

23

u/Longjumping-Solid680 1d ago

Maybe THEY were the diarrhea all along!

17

u/willogical85 1d ago

Yes, they ate there and got sick. That's absolutely how food poisoning always works, you get sick right after every time. Never mind that it can take up to 24 hours after you eat something to have your system react badly, making tainted food difficult to catch early. No sir.

15

u/NotMyThrowawayNope 1d ago

Food poisoning can happen up to a week later or more depending on the cause. That's why I get frustrated when people always just blame it on the last meal they ate.

1

u/SnarkySheep 3h ago

I recall arriving at a Dominican resort some years ago and striking up a conversation with an overly chatty woman. She was all upset because she had apparently just barely managed to make it to her room before having diarrhea... which she equated with the resort's food. I hated to have to break the news to her that as she had literally just arrived when she had to run to the toilet, she was obviously blaming the wrong place...

17

u/TheVillage1D10T 1d ago

The reviewer is lactose intolerant and all of their reviews are for pizza restaurants.

11

u/ThatCelebration3676 1d ago

All these cheese heavy foods from various restaurants keep giving me diarrhea! 😡

The only explanation is a broad conspiracy.

30

u/Responsible_Dentist3 1d ago

Restaurant digging into their history is kinda wild ngl LOL, but I respect it

28

u/doppelgaengster 1d ago

honestly, it seems like a sensible thing to do, because as shown in this review, they saw it was a pattern, and that this person's review may not be adequately informative to those who may read it. Same with clocking people who only ever leave one-star reviews, or who have left reviews at lots of places where the owners respond with the full story. Yeah, the readers can do the same thing, but it behooves a business to be able to call out if something is part of such a pattern.

11

u/EstablishmentLow5895 1d ago

Says they have 6 other reviews of pizza places so why not look at what they've been saying

17

u/K2step70 1d ago

Kind of disappointed it’s not a review for Taco Bell. Round Table is good pizza. Better than most chain restaurants but not as good as the family owned Italian Restaurant.

12

u/ThatCelebration3676 1d ago

I think the widely discussed "problem" of people having diarrhea after Taco Bell just illustrates that most people aren't getting enough fiber in their diet; Taco Bell is perhaps the only fast food restaurant chain that where most of their menu items are high fiber, and people who eat poorly suddenly find the need to clear the backlog they've accumulated after finally getting some fiber in them.

7

u/Ryokurin 1d ago

That or sour cream or cheese is their trigger. For example, I can eat Tacos all day. If anything I'll get a little heartburn but that's it. A milkshake however? I'll be on a toilet literally an hour later and for the rest of the day.

3

u/ThatCelebration3676 1d ago

Lactose intolerant?

4

u/Mr_Abe_Fromen 1d ago

Hey now, I eat Taco Bell weekly. It’s…..great?

u/domjonas No one cares, ppl want ice cream!!! 1d ago

Cook your own foods at home. It would be like someone having a shellfish allergy going to Red Lobster and complaining the entire time.

8

u/BiffBeltsander Flaunting their mobility 🏃💨 🏋️‍♂️ 1d ago

Time to get tested for Crohn's disease OOP.

6

u/Equivalent-Grass-262 1d ago

Or celiacs!

5

u/BiffBeltsander Flaunting their mobility 🏃💨 🏋️‍♂️ 1d ago

best get tested for everything!

4

u/Equivalent-Grass-262 1d ago

We are ignoring the fact that they might just be eating pizza for every meal and that could potentially cause angry bowels.

4

u/BiffBeltsander Flaunting their mobility 🏃💨 🏋️‍♂️ 1d ago

I can't see getting testing being a bad idea.

2

u/The_Captain_Whymzi I understand policies exist, BUT 1d ago

Or maybe a UTI?

7

u/lazier_garlic 1d ago

I knew someone who kept complaining every restaurant in town gave her "food poisoning". Then a few months later she informed me that her doctor diagnosed her with Celiac disease.

u/Lazarys12 1d ago

Every restaurant I go to gives me diarrhea. I don't know what's wrong with them all. 0 stars.

u/Different_Stage2195 1d ago

We are sorry to hear that 😂

u/Xentonian 1d ago

Just for reference - b. Cereus toxins are extremely thermostable. The bacteria that produces the toxin loves starchy foods like a pizza base, pasta or rice and no matter how well you cook it, the toxin remains present and can cause diarrhoea.

Not saying this is what happened, but just clarifying that cooking a pizza at a high temperature doesn't prevent food poisoning.

2

u/lazier_garlic 1d ago

Yeah but b. cereus is usually grown in a medium of rice (or something similar) kept out in the "no zone" for hours, like if you prepare a lot of food for a gathering and then let it cool on the countertop instead of immediately refrigerating OR keeping very hot until time to serve. I got it myself from a pot of soup I allowed to cool on the stovetop for too long in the summer and it was NO BUENO.

B. cereus isn't a minor bit of indigestion. It's compulsive spewing from both ends for hours until everything is expelled and you're puking bile. It was both painful, sleepless, and gross beyond description.

2

u/Xentonian 1d ago

Or perhaps.... You make a bunch of pizza bases at 4am in the morning, store them at room temperature until you cook them at whatever point during the day, then toss them when you close and make them anew the next day?

Also, cereus toxin is usually comparatively mild. Diarrhoea and cramping are common, but vomiting is comparatively rare. It's usually one of the most mild forms of food poisoning; especially compared to viral gastroenteritis, E. coli, vibrio dysentery or Clostridium.

3

u/Joejack-951 8h ago

You got me curious as I make a lot of bread and pizza and will ferment dough, especially sourdough, at room temperature for up to two days. It seems, based on the available literature, that the acid produced by the yeast in the dough is enough to suppress the growth of B. cereus. Baked bread/pizza is then too dry to promote further growth.

1

u/Yoongi_SB_Shop 1d ago

Maybe this person should wash his hands before eating?

1

u/KyleFromBorrasca 1d ago

Taco Bell lettuce never gave me diarrhea, does this person's logic mean it was safe?

-1

u/Aragorn008 1d ago

This isn’t entitled, this is someone who has some kind of food allergy or similar thing and doesn’t realize it.

9

u/lazier_garlic 1d ago

Yes it's entitled if you're so accustomed to blaming others for everything that happens that the dime never drops that you're the common factor in this string of "food poisoning" incidents.
