It was kinda spectacular, as far as reaction shots go. Really captured the emotion of, “Please, I don’t wanna die! Not like this!” Naturally, the internet being the empathetic people that we all are, it didn’t take long for everyone to start photoshopping Ms. Grande into various pictures in which a cringe-worthy reaction would be appropriate. We would love to say that we are above such chicanery. We are so not.

Which made us naturally think about what would make a person cringe that epically (aside from a big, pink wing to the noggin). It would have to be something that was gross, or horrible, or cruel or scary. Then, the lightbulb went off. Dairy isn’t just one of those things. It’s all of them! From how it’s made to what it does in our bodies, it’s one of the more cringe-worthy substances ever. Just look at how scared she is of it!
