Can anyone recommend a decent flavoured lactose cheese please?
I have coeliac disease and noticed after a lot of detective work that any milk product is making me unwell even milk in coffee.
From researching on the net both conditions quite often go hand in hand.![]()
Strong cheddar 🙂Do you have a preference in cheeses?
Area cheese seems popular in shops, tasted Arla milk & that's fine not sure about cheese though
Strong cheddar 🙂
Thanks for the info will start a hunt tomorrow depending on the weather it was -6 in Cornwall last night with black ice everywhere.
Mature strong cheddar is one of the lowest in lactose.
There should only be a trace amount in 100g.
Didn't know that, love good strong cheddar.
Iceland do a surprisingly good cheddar.
It's their own bargain block, very large, (not good if you can't put it down!), And amazingly cheap for what it is.
It's my go to cooking cheese, but it's also good on a cracker, (I'm very fussy over mature cheddar, it needs flavour, and that good crystal texture.
Oh I quite agree, I use Lidl cheeses normally but not keen at the moment due to the issue with my tummy. Will if I can have a chat with GP tomorrow and see if I can have any enzyme replacers on prescription to try.Will have to try it.
Asda also do good strong mature cheddar, nothing wrong with own brands & are often better than big name brands.
Yes, my Dietican told me this too.Didn't know that, love good strong cheddar.

Backs up what the dietitian told me then, she was talking about mature cheddar.I was just looking at my pack of Somerset Crunchy Vintage Cheddar from Lidl yesterday and it is <0.1g carbs per 100g so it will have a really negligible amount of lactose in it.
Oh wow thank you I will go have a look tomorrow.
Thanks, will have a look when I next shop. Have tried their strong cheddar this evening with no problems so far. Gluten free bread is only palatable when it's toasted with cheese 🙂I was just looking at my pack of Somerset Crunchy Vintage Cheddar from Lidl yesterday and it is <0.1g carbs per 100g so it will have a really negligible amount of lactose in it.
