If you have a personal question about LI or any related topic you can send me an email at stevecarper@cs.com. I will try to respond.

Otherwise, this blog is now a legacy site, meaning that I am not updating it any longer. The basic information about LI is still sound. However, product information and weblinks may be out of date.

In addition, my old website, Planet Lactose, has been taken down because of the age of the information. Unfortunately, that means links to the site on this blog will no longer work.

For quick offline reference, you can purchase Planet Lactose: The Best of the Blog as an ebook on Amazon.com or BarnesandNoble.com. Almost 100,000 words on LI, allergies, milk products, milk-free products, and the genetics of intolerance, along with large helpings of the weirdness that is the Net.

Sorrento Lactose Free String Cheese

I received an email from Nicole S. telling me that Sorrento string cheese was lactose free. Their website doesn't confirm this, but before I could go any further the enterprising Nicole contacted the company and received this excellent response.


String cheese is made when a special culture changes the milk sugar into lactic acid, however there is some residual lactose left.

Our lactose free string cheese has a special added enzyme that further breaks down the residual lactose into two other easily digested sugars- galactose and glucose. Thus lactose is eliminated!

Terrific.

You can see more about Sorrento Stringsters Mozzarella String Cheese and Sorrento Stringsters Reduced Fat Mozzarella String Cheese at the Sorrento snack cheese products page.

Many thanks, Nicole!

I couldn't find this cheese any longer in my area so I wrote the company and they wrote me back.
