This is so interesting. I went vegan because of my colitis years ago. I didn't really care about the meat and didn't like it much anyway but it was so hard to give up on cheese. But, my stomach was a wreck for months so anything was better than that. For years after, I was fine and recently have been cheating and eating some cheese while out at things. Now, my colitis is back with a vengeance and had to cut it out completely again. I'm jealous that you were able to add it back in!! I need to write about this! :)
