Lactose intolerance is higher in Asians, specifically Chinese, at about double the rate of those from Europe.

It's also high amongst PI, many of the first settlers sailed to the PI from what is now China.

I'm an omnivore. I do like good Vegan (as much as I like a good steak).

When I was working on the island that China has a hard on about, and loose cultural ties to - eating vegan was very, very easy. In any city, from medium-ish to large; it was always like a coin-toss as to which particular vegan-friendly eatery to choose. Some fantastic stuff. Very inexpensive, too. I'm surprised to learn that China's vegan offerings are fewer and farther between. Then again, I guess it's not so surprising given the histories between the two.
