A baker works at a Umassif Bakery in Beijing on Wednesday. Chinese diets have traditionally been low on dairy products, in part because most adult Chinese are lactose intolerant, meaning they have difficulty digesting the sugar found in milk. Cheese and cream contain lower levels of lactose than milk. Euromonitor International expects the China cheese market to jump 23 percent to 3.5 billion yuan (US$547 million) this year.SD-Agencies
