Guest guest Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 Interesting you brought that up. I always get sick from cottage cheese, yogurt, etc. I had lots of nasal allergies years back. The ent doctor gave me the patch test and the only thing that swelled was the cow's milk patch. He asked me what happened if I drank milk. I told him I never drink milk because I don't like it and when I was a baby I had to have soy or rice milk since I couldn't tolerate cow's milk. He told me to eat feta or parmesan cheese (I buy one at Traders Joe's called pecorino parmesan) made from goats milk and I wouldn't have a problem. He's right. I do get away with a little grated cheddar on top of a tostada but a slice of cheesecake will kill my tummy. If I take lactaid pills they make me feel nauseated so those are no help. Since I use very small amount of dairy I have no sinus problems and my tummy is fine, I just can't give it up 100%. When I walk thru the deli and they had me a little cheese sample there's no way I can say no............. I eat Rice Dream ice cream, soy cheese, use Tofutti cream cheese, use rice or soy milk on cereal that type thing. organic_homestead <organic_homestead wrote: I heard something interesting about feta cheese on another group (on Tribe.net). Did any of you know that lactose intolerant people can eat feta cheese? As long as it's not made from cow's milk which I don't think could be feta, but who knows. Anyway, I didn't know that goat and sheep milk was so different from cow. interesting.....Denise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 The label " pecorino " on cheese usually means it's made from sheep's milk ( " pecora " is Italian for " sheep " ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 right it is sheep's milk, it doesn't bother me when I use it. Just the cow's.
