That map looks extremely arbitrary to me. Knowing what little I know of a few cuisines, it doesn't sound possible that regions where there's a very rich tradition of meals/desserts with milk and a prevalence of yoghurt and cheese would have 30-60% lactose intolerance.
I was gonna disagree but like... Mongolia is in the dark blue? And most of the middle east + India?
Places like India and Korea have quite a bit of dairy and cheese for sure. This map seems too broad to be accurate.
