Jeannie - I love that name. It's my daughter's name. Isn't it a shame that something so good, can be so bad? Yogurt is delicious, and helpful, but not for people who are lactose intolerant. The other day I wanted an ice cream cone so bad, I couldn't stand it. I went to Dairy Queen and bought one. That night, I suffered with horrible cramps. Live and learn huh? I hope her staph from the DBS doesn't last as mine has from the mastectomy. Best to you.
