So you know that meme about how The Emperor couldn't drink milk (see attached)? I just realised that Jaghatai Khan's favourite drink was fermented milk. Since he was made with the Emperor's DNA & therefore lacks the gene that allows lactose to be digested, does this mean he constantly had the shits? - ThreadSky

or simply the Emperor's mythology is a lie, certainly explains why no one had heard of the Anathama prior to the unification wars

Lactose is what gets fermented out of milk (by lactobacillus!) so milk fermentation products often don't cause lactose intolerance issues.

This isn't a joke either, it's legitimately why some majority lactose intolerant cultures drink/eat fermented milk products IRL

Yes this confirmed my suspicions that the Emperors true form is actually a cat

That was one of his specific mutations, no whitescars are lactose intolerant :P

Why do you think he was in such a hurry?

"Made with" isn't the same as "direct clone of," DNA-wise - perhaps, having had a few near misses himself, Big E thought he'd better save his planned generals the indignity of blowing their arseholes out mid-battle after an unwise pizza or two?

As it was jaghatai his shits where probably really really fast

tytanwargaming.bsky.social•115 days ago

Fermentation can destroy lactose from memory

So maybe his favourite was fermented milk because it didn't make him sick

I suspect that the Primarchs (and likely Big E) have advanced DNA in them...?

Even if Big E himself doesn't, he'd surely bugfix it, right?
