    foamed lactase.

    Isn’t that the thing that digests milk, but not milk? You can buy little lactase pills at the pharmacy.

      Opps. You are correct.

      Lactase, is an enzyme that helps break down lactose into its component parts for digestion. (Wiki)

      I guess I was trying to use the verb form “lactate” for a science-y term for milk.
