About One slice of cheddar cheese
A slice of cheddar cheese is a rich, creamy dairy product made primarily from cow's milk, originating from England and widely used in various cuisines around the world. Known for its sharp, tangy flavor and firm texture, cheddar cheese is a versatile ingredient, often featured in sandwiches, casseroles, and snack platters. A single slice provides protein, calcium, and essential vitamins like Vitamin B12, which support bone health and energy metabolism. However, cheddar is also high in saturated fat and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation to maintain heart health and prevent excessive caloric intake. While it’s a satisfying addition to many meals, individuals mindful of dietary restrictions may opt for low-fat or reduced-sodium versions to enjoy its taste while balancing nutrition goals.
