Lactose free dairy cheese in southern California?

In my hometown in Canada, a local dairy company sells a lactose-free cheddar cheese. It's NOT dairy free, but somehow it is lactose free.

Is anyone aware of a store in southern California (San Diego, specifically) that sells such a product? The stores nearest me are Whole Foods, Ralph's, Trader Joe's, and Sprouts.

    Harder cheeses are naturally lactose free. Even Kraft cheese says it contains 0 grams of lactose on some of its packages.

    But I'm not aware of a cheddar that falls into that category! The hard cheeses have their uses, but are not what I need for every dish.

    edit: When I first responded, I was on the app and the picture didn't appear. Is that a lactose free mozzarella?? I will have to read the packing on some Kraft cheese I guess! Thank you.

    Yes, I buy the double pack at Sam's Club.

    I bought a yummy almond-based cheese at Sprouts. Whole Foods will have something--just ask them.

    Thank you, but I'm not after dairy free cheese. I've tried several and have not liked any.
