While it's not a high-end cheese, Cabot Cheddar melts pretty well, has good flavor, and is lactose free.
Also, if whatever cheese you're buying has nutrition facts, check the amount of sugar. That's rarely "added" sugar, that's lactose, which is a sugar like sucrose and glucose; it just happens to be a sugar the vast majority of the adult population of the planet have trouble digesting.
So if it has 0 grams of sugar, it is lactose free. And generally the amount of sugar then can also give you a sense of how lactose-y a particular cheese is.
Ok that's really useful, thanks! I would have just assumed ''sugar' here meant sucrose or fructose like most products but that makes sense.
No prob! I went into a little more detail about in a comment above if you're interested.
My parents, two of my siblings, and my gf are all lactose intolerant lol, but we all love cheese!
