Can lactose intolerant people eat sour cream?

Lactose intolerant individuals may be able to tolerate sour cream in small amounts, as the fermentation process reduces its lactose content. However, tolerance levels vary from person to person. It's best for those with lactose intolerance to choose lactose-free sour cream or consume regular sour cream in moderation to avoid discomfort. Always check labels for lactose content if unsure.
