Nah, they don't impact me. I like salads and yogurts and all that. I stereotyped them here myself just to sort of hammer in a point that many people don't realize: You don't have to stop eating normal food regardless of what rumors / horror stories you hear. Unless your doctor tells you to stop eating cheese or you'll be dead in a week, or something like that.
Of course, if there's something in particular that triggers severe reactions or heartburn then you might want to consider staying away from it for the sake of not punishing yourself. For me, that's wine. If I drink a glass of wine, in 5 minutes I'll be gasping for air and have heartburn so bad I can taste the stomach acid.
