Why can lactose intolerant people eat yogurt?
I believe that it is goats milk cheese they can eat without a problem Goats milk contains low fat and milk sugar. Actually, goat cheeses do have less lactose but so do Swiss and Cheddar. The older the cheese (and therefore most likely harder) the less lactose that survives. Any cheese has less lactose with age but the cheeses above have less as a class. Cottage cheese, Velveeta and other soft, especially processed, cheeses have the most lactose
How long can you keep cheese before it molds?
Depending on how you store it, different cheeses last different amounts of time. Hard cheeses can last a couple months, soft cheeses a week. If you wrap soft cheeses to keep the air out, it will last a lot longer. You can also shred cheese and freeze it so it last longer. If you have mold, you can scare off the mold and a little extra, and the rest is still good.

Does fresh mozzarella count as a soft cheese to avoid while pregnant?
Mozzarella is ok. Avoid mould-ripened soft cheeses such as Brie or Camembert, blue-veined cheeses such as Stilton. All are associated with listeria, which can lead to premature birth and miscarriage. You should also avoid mould-ripened goats' and sheep's milk cheeses, such as chèvre, although hard cheese made from these, for example halloumi and feta, should be safe. You can eat hard cheeses such as Cheshire, Wensleydale, cheddar, Edam, Gouda and Parmesan. Soft processed cheeses like Philadelphia, dairylea, mozzarella, cottage cheese, cream cheese and curd cheese are all safe even if not marked pasteurised.
Why is hard cheese best for cooking?
I do know that hard cheese is not as stringy when it is heated. Soft cheeses tend to be stringy and even lumpy. Quite possibly it has something to do with the aging or ripening process.
What Swiss cheese is soft?
Tomme is the most common soft Swiss cheese. Brie-type soft cheeses are also made in Switzerland.
How many french cheeses?
It's almost impossible to answer this because there are so many, and because different cheese makers may produce their own varieties. There are so many variables, such as type of milk, type of bacteria/rennet, how long it's aged, if it's got a washed rind, or a coating, or nothing at all. There are hard, soft, and semi soft cheese, as well as creamy styles. Wikipedia says there are currently 350 - 400 (or possibly up to 1000) distinct types of french cheese grouped into 8 main categories: fresh cheeses, soft cheeses with natural rind, soft cheeses with washed ring, pressed cheeses, pressed and cooked cheeses, goat cheese, blue cheese, and processed cheese.
When does cheese become unsafe for consumption?
There are several variables, including the type of cheese, the condition in which it's stored, the humidity level, temperature...etc. In short, hard cheeses such as certain Cheddars, Parmesean, etc, stay safe for a very long period of time. If mold appears, simply cut off the affected section and consume the rest. Since the cheese is such a solid mass, the mold will not penetrate through the entire piece. If the surface is hard/discolored, cut it off and consume the rest. Soft cheeses such as Brie or Camembert should be taken a bit more cautiously. If you see mold on the inside of soft cheeses, it's best to throw them out. The soft consistency of these cheeses makes it very easy for bacteria and mold spores to quickly penetrate the entire interior of the cheese, making it very dangerous to eat. In short, hard cheeses could be good for a month or more, but soft cheeses may only last a week or two, once you open each.
Is soft cheese the same as cream cheese?
soft cheeses are typically easier to digest than hard. Hard cheese requires an acid environment, much like meat in order to digest.

Generally, yes. Some soft cheeses require refrigeration, but many hard cheeses are shelf-stable. They are more likely to dry out than to spoil. As always, if it smells bad or feels slimy, throw it away.
