  • Miyoko brand cashew cheeses are excellent if you’re not looking for melted cheese. They have an aged cheddar and a soft herbed “cheese” that are great as a cheese-board type thing. Also there are other companies making fake shredded cheese that is lightyears ahead of the soy-based rubbery garbage of a decade ago. I use a fake shredded cheddar on pizza - and it’s much better than being almost but not entirely unlike actual cheese. That said, I miss cheese. Stupid sexy alpha gal allergy.



  • I was about to say you’re full of malarky, but then I looked it up - and you’re right, aged cheeses are extremely low in lactose. Some as low as 1 mg per 100 g. Too bad I also have alpha gal allergy at the moment and it’s thought that mammal products that don’t cause anaphylaxis still have enough of the alpha gal sugar cause an inflammatory response/unstable arterial plaques that greatly increases stroke risk.
