Is aged cheese okay to eat if you eat it with pasta or some other sf?

Cheese is dairy and dairy is not okay on Heather's IBS diet. Insoluble fiber you can cushion with soluble fiber like pasta and eat safely, but the true trigger foods (red meat, dark poultry, dairy, egg yolks) don't work that way. You just have to avoid them.
Sorry.

Cheese is definitely not ok. Dairy is a MAJOR trigger food, and not just because of the lactose. Sorry!

Okay I guess my homemade parmesan from Italy will have to be put on hold.

There are ways to work around this! Dairy is definitely a no-no but there are replacements!
Have you ever tried soy cheese or rice cheese?
My friends ordered pizza a while back and asked for half of one pizza to have NO cheese. When it arrived, I put on some grated soy mozarella cheese I bought at the grocery store and threw it in the oven 'til the cheese melted. Honestly, you could have fooled me that it wasn't just regular ol' pizza! Except with less grease!
Warning: Some soy cheese is not good, I have to be honest. Finding a good one sometimes takes some time, so if you try one that is particularly yucky, don't give up!! There are good ones out there! I can't remember the brand name I got, do a search on the boards for 'soy cheese' and see what you can find.
Good luck!!

Hi,
Have you tried pizza without cheese? I ordered a "vegan" pizza the other day at a restraunt, with no cheese and a few safe-ish veggies, and it was quite tasty. I didn't have any problems with it, either.
HTH,
Myra

Yes. I have bought soy cheese pizza at the health food store and it is good. But when you are at a good pizza place it is so hard to resist pizza with Mozzarella. But I will try it without cheese. Thanks for the input.

...it doesn't work so well with takeaway as they're so boring typically, but restaurants pizzas are yummy....and if you ask for one without cheese you usually get extra topping!

No cheese (and for me very little sauce) -- and with whatever toppings I want. It really isn't too bad -- and cuts the fat way down too!
