00:00Do you love cheese but it doesn't love you back?
00:02Here are some low lactose cheese options for you.
00:06The longer a cheese is aged, the less lactose there will be.
00:09So our hard grating cheeses, like parmigiano,
00:12which is aged for at least 12 months,
00:15it's probably one of the cheeses on this board
00:17that has the least amount of lactose in it.
00:19Next we have the melting cheeses,
00:21especially cheddar cheese.
00:23You know it, you love it.
00:25The sharper the cheese, the less lactose it has in it.
00:28And then the gruyere cheese or alpine cheeses,
00:31like Swiss cheese, those are also really low in lactose.
00:34Monterey Jack and provolone.
00:36And you might be surprised to see a softer cheese on the board.
00:39The sheep's milk and the goat's milk
00:41naturally have less lactose in them.
00:43This is advice for people with lactose sensitivity,
00:46not a serious allergy.
