Ever goto the China Buffet type places and have those cream cheese fried wontons? Although that's kinda stretching it, since most of the stuff at chinese buffets isn't exactly REAL chinese food...
its definitely a minority, but I was more focused on the fact "they just don't like the taste". There is over a billion people in China. Not all will have the same taste.
"The most common cause of lactase deficiency is a decrease in the amount of lactase that occurs after childhood and persists into adulthood, referred to as adult-type hypolactasia. This decrease is genetically programmed, and the prevalence of this type of lactase deficiency among different ethnic groups is highly variable. Thus, among Asian populations it is almost 100%, among American Indians it is 80%, and among blacks it is 70%; however, among American Caucasians the prevalence of lactase deficiency is only 20%. In addition to variability in the prevalence of lactase deficiency, there also is variability in the age at which symptoms of lactose intolerance appear. Thus, among Asian populations, the symptoms of deficiency (intolerance) occurs around the age of 5, among Blacks and Mexican-Americans by the age of 10, and among the Finnish by age 20." -www.medicinenet.com

I think you owe me an apologie
I was wrong on the minority statement, but I still think that you're wrong about them not liking the taste.
edit: and I'm not giving an apology to someone who can't spell the word correctly.
i like the taste of milk and so do many of my friends but the fact that we're lactose is genetic and that's why we buy lactose free products and those lactose digestive pills
