"I would prefer not to consume bovine lactose at any temperature"

(said at some point after the episode where he consumes tons of ice cream, probably discovering he is intolerant or at the very least giving himself digestive issues)

    It could also be argued that he may have been eating non-dairy ice cream in that scene. Lactose intolerance (and other dairy-free lifestyles like veganism) are fairly common, so I wouldn't be surprised if the SGC food stores had non-dairy varieties as well for those individuals who don't want "normal" ice cream. We certainly don't get a clear enough view of the label to see exactly what it is he is eating. They just call it "the frozen stuff" here.

    But I agree, the better in-universe assumption is that he had just learned his lesson after eating dairy for the first time. With that said, I assume the real-world explanation is that that was actually just a mistake by two different Stargate writers not coordinating stories.
