What this has to do with milk I don't know. The white South Africans,
in fact most white settlers in Africa do not have the problem with
milk that blacks have. I was not talking about the children of
mixed marriages, not the many people from India who have settled in
Africa. And if I have any African in me (I'm blond and blue-eyed)
then this would certainly be detrimental as far as milk-drinking
is concerned.
