You can get really nice little round goats cheeses in France as well - I always stock up in Calais when I pop over for wine! Sheeps milk cheese is also OK for me though. (there are several kinds of that, including several good Spanish hard cheeses). Oh, and reindeer cheese is OK, but only "real" Sami stuff, not the for export variety, which is cut with milk to make it cheaper (I guess). Oooh, I miss have a decent cheese shop close by - it was one of the few advantages in Denmark (hard to get tofu based stuff, but lots of different non-dairy cheeses!). We have one in the market here, but although he does an excellent range of English regional cheese, the supply of European cheese isn't as wide as on the continent. If you find a good cheese merchant though, make sure you ask them to use *cleaned* implements to cut it - they usually use the same implements to cut different cheeses, perfectly hygeinic, but of course the last cheese they cut might well have been a cows milk variety. I think there is a difference in what the intolerance/allergy is to - cows milk intolerance obviously doesn't effect other mammilian milk, certain proteins are and aren't present in different mammilian milk (and think about it, sheeps milk is as similar to cows milk as it is to human milk) and it depends which ones are present in which milk whether you can drink/eat it or not.
