1 slice (medium) of Lactose-Free White Cheese (30 g) has 78 calories. That works out to 260 calories per 100 g. It contains 0.8 g of carbs, 5.1 g of protein, 6 g of fat and 0 g of fiber. Its 102 mg of Phosphorus covers 15% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 30 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Lactose-Free White Cheese is a Turkish-style white cheese made from milk in which the lactose has been broken down. It has a clean, milky flavour and a moist, tender texture that cuts into neat slices but can crumble slightly. Saltiness and firmness vary by maker.
In Turkey it commonly appears at breakfast with bread, olives, tomatoes and cucumber, and it also works in salads or savoury pastries. Elsewhere, serve it much as you would a mild table cheese, with fresh vegetables or herbs. It is protein-rich and low in carbohydrate, with 17 g of protein per 100 g. Pair it with produce and keep the portion modest if you want a lighter plate.

High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

Lactose-free white cheese is made by breaking down the milk’s lactose with the enzyme lactase or by using milk from which lactose has been removed. It is then made into cheese, giving it the familiar moist, crumbly texture of white cheese.
Usually, yes: lactose-free white cheese has had its lactose removed or broken down, so many people with lactose intolerance can eat it. It still contains milk proteins, however, so it is not suitable for someone with a milk allergy.
Lactose-free white cheese usually tastes much like regular white cheese. Breaking down lactose can make it seem slightly sweeter, while its saltiness and tang depend on the milk, brining, and cheesemaking method.
Keep lactose-free white cheese refrigerated in a clean, covered container, ideally submerged in its original brine. Follow the package’s storage instructions and use-by date; discard it if its smell, color, or surface changes unusually.
Lactose-free white cheese generally softens rather than melting into a smooth, stretchy cheese. It works well crumbled into omelets or baked dishes, but combine it with a better-melting cheese if you want a gooier filling.
Yes, you can freeze lactose-free white cheese, but thawing may make it drier and more crumbly. Use thawed cheese in cooked dishes such as pies, eggs, or casseroles rather than relying on neat slices for a cheese board.
No, lactose-free white cheese is still a dairy product made from milk. Lactose-free means the milk sugar has been removed or broken down; it does not mean the cheese is free of milk proteins or suitable for a milk allergy.
Yes, lactose-free white cheese can often stand in for feta when crumbled over salads or used in savory fillings. The result may be milder, saltier, or softer depending on the cheese, so adjust added salt to taste.
Yes, lactose-free white cheese can be eaten without brine, though the brine helps preserve its texture and salty flavor. If it tastes too salty, briefly rinse or soak a portion, then keep the remaining cheese refrigerated.
Yes, lactose-free white cheese fits a Turkish-style breakfast served with olives, tomatoes, cucumbers, and bread. Its savory flavor also works crumbled into an omelet; pair it with fresh vegetables if you want to balance its saltiness.
