For Lactose Intolerant Swiss Cheese Lovers:

Buy Finalandia Swiss, it's lactose free and low in salt. I was
surprised to see the note on the package. I used to get it in Costco
in three pound blocks but they stopped selling it for Emmenthaler,
which makes me sick in a very short period of time.

Tell Costco to restock the Finlandia. I think they're responsive that
way. They did bring back the Vidalia Onion Salad Dressing.

I wonder what a Swiss Cheese Pizza would taste like.
