We had ham steaks last night, and I had leftovers for lunch and ran to the bathroom around 2.

Hatfield says it's gluten-free. This is the ham ingredient list:

Traditional Ham Steak
Cured with Water, Contains less than 2% of Salt, Sugar, Potassium Lactate, Dextrose, Sodium Phosphate, Potassium Chloride, Sodium Diacetate, Sodium Erythorbate, Sodium Nitrite

Is there any chance there's milk product in there somewhere? I read that potassium lactate is not derived from dairy, but other Web sites (of dubious reliability) say that it is.

what else did you eat with it?

I am not celiac (husband is) but I am severely lactose intolerant and I avoid foods with Potassium Lactate as I feel that they bother me.....I am not sure but would Potassium Lactate be considered a derivitive of lactose? And lactose would prompt diarrhea and stomach/intestine gas and churning....

Update: I believe now it was the potatoes on the side. I definitely seem to have a nightshade intolerance.

Potassium lactate doesn't have anything to do with lactose even though the name sounds similar.
