Lactose Intolerance and Aged Cheese:

Traditionally made hard cheese (such as Swiss cheese) and soft ripened cheeses typically contain less lactose due to the fermentation and aging which consumes lactose. After 3 weeks, there is virtually no lactose remaining in artisanal versions of these cheeses. Commercial cheese brands, however, are generally manufactured by modern processes that do not have the same lactose reducing properties.
