Why don't Japanese drink milk?
Japanese people don't drink milk because of allergies.

A survey by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare shows that one in every two people in Japan has allergic problems, and 0-6 people die of food allergies every year. Some nutritionists also pointed out that in fact, 80% of Japanese people can't fully absorb the nutrition of milk, and they will have diarrhea after drinking it.

Because these children are lactose intolerant or can't drink because of food allergy, the number of children who don't like to drink milk is increasing, and with the implementation of traditional catering in China, many people have a natural taste resistance to the collocation of white rice and milk. Only the amount of milk poured every day in primary and secondary schools can not be underestimated.

In recent years, Niigata and other rice-producing counties began to advocate a complete rice feeding system, demanding the complete cancellation of milk supply, but such local policies actually violated the feeding law.
