Oh curses, I had all but forgotten about Gateworld as a resource. Mainly because it didnt/doesnt seem to work well on mobile!

Also I saw that meme earlier, but given the years since last watching the show, I didnt give it much thought. Thank you for your tips!

The finnish youth movie Pitkä Kuuma Kesä, set in 1980's Joensuu, really portrays the cops in far too positive light. They werent as jovial and unviolent as in the movie - they employed their rubber batongs much more freely irl. I know from experience.

They are luckily far less violent and authoritarian in current times, per my own experience and being told by my friends.

True enough - I have to very careful when visiting local Lidls and browsing their products (though Finnish Lidls tend stock a lot of local lactose free stuff, luckily), else one invites the shitrocket.

But again this invites my query, invoked earlier on another comment in this thread - Germany is a much larger market with lots of immigration and the tech exists. Why not sell it to people, when there is also volume available?

That does not really explain the lack of use on the technology (which you do have, to make milk products lactose free) and the lack of products/marketing on lactose free milk products.

Isnt USA all about making new products for new consumers? If we can do it here, in a much smaller markets and with less resources, why cant it be done in the USA? You do have lots of lactose intolerant people there, through immigration alone - why on earth dont you, salesmen of the planet, want to sell that to them?

Thats why I do kinda of suppose that maybe its an cultural/social issue?

Fair enough, but it is also an observation based on other observations (through american culture's past and current hegemony on global internet's english speaking portion) about the cheesyness of america.

Edit: also I'm finnish, our humour is kind of dry and tries to be witty, like think of the brits. So read it through that lense.

In Finland they are. Why cant you do it?

Katsopa tarkemmin. Esimerkiksi Arkijuusto on ollut laktoositonta viimeiset 5 vuotta, vähintään. Eikä todellakaan ole ainoa. T: Juusto rakastava, laktoosia paskova.

For english speakers: we have had lactose free cheesw for a while, and it is delicious.

This is really a thing ive been wondering about USA... Dont you have lactose free products? I mean, if the tiny Nordics can and do produce lactose free versions of pretty much everything, in pretty much every possible place, why cant you?

Is it a sadism/eugenics thing (kidding but not 100% kidding)?

Pitää kokeilla sitä nyt sitten ihan periaatteesta joku päivä. Lapsuusnostalgiaa vai irvistelyä, jää nähtäväksi.
