There are over 168 Million People in the World with a diagnosed dairy intolerance. Some people also have an actually allergy to it. There are differences. People who are allergic to it, can actually die if they ingest it.
This number is much, much larger than those with a gluten intolerance today. It is so important for those with this disorder to know what alternative names are but also just as important for food service providers to understand what dairy really means, when manufacturing or preparing food for those with this digestive disorder. Dairy and all it's names

It's VERY, VERY important to work with a Certified Food Allergy Consultant who specializes in commercial kitchens when building specialty menus or creating food products at the manufacturer level. Staff should be properly trained and facilities certified. Doing this limits liability, protects and increases consumer confidence and ultimately will help keep a successful business. People with a food allergy or food intolerance WANT to EAT, it's not that just don't like dairy, as an example, it truly is a disorder they can do absolutely nothing about except to live without the offending food, in some cases for LIFE.
