Cheese/Cheese Substitutes: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category includes a wide variety of dairy cheeses, such as cheddar, mozzarella, and Swiss, as well as processed cheese products and plant-based cheese alternatives. When choosing cheese products, consider the Nutrition Facts label. Sodium content can vary significantly, so checking the milligrams (mg) per serving is helpful. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend limiting sodium intake. For cheese alternatives, review the ingredient list. Look for whole foods, like nuts or soy, listed as the first ingredient. Some products may have added sugars or oils; these are typically found lower on the ingredient list. Pay attention to serving sizes to manage calorie and nutrient intake. Comparing products based on their sodium, saturated fat, and protein content can help you make informed choices that fit your dietary needs.
