I liken it to sugar addictions. It’s not comparable to drug addictions, but the cravings are intense and people are effectively addicted to the flavor. 18 months into my allergy and I still have really intense cheese cravings.

Fellow dairy allergy in the US here, though I’m fortunate it’s not anaphylactic so I don’t have to worry about dying. I also am constantly frustrated by dairy being in everything. And so many places don’t offer proper allergen menus! Something about the proteins in milk give it a uniquely addicting flavor, it’s what makes McDonalds fries so delicious. Wouldn’t be surprised if there was also a dairy industry lobbying thing going on, making sure every product has unnecessary milk in it.
Unfortunately.
