If cheese is made wholly of milk is it really fattening or is this a fallacy, I love cheese me, no I mean I love cheese me, I could eat it every day; but worry if it is truly fattening? TIA

Yes it is, but it depends on how much you eat per day
It's fattening, heart clogging, high in sodium, full of anti-biotics, growth hormones and pus cells, clogs the lymph glands and is, according to oncologists and dieticians, one of the foods most associated with numerous cancers.
Its nice though
And I've just had some.....
All bad foods are nice.
when eaten in small amounts it is a good source of protein
Too true NoM^ I love cheese too, and I'm told to eat it for my bones. at the same time I'm told not to eat too much because of high colesterol.
AYG... interesting findings not so long ago...

Cheese, being one of the richest sources of easily absorbable calcium has such a high acid content that it may, in fact, leech more calcium out of your bones than it actually confers. Thus vegans have been found to suffer less bone related diseases than high dairy consumers.
Now that is something I wouldn't have thought of.
No Mercy, have you got the link to that research please?

Thanks all. Nuts, I'll have to cut down on me cheese intake Gromit lad! Even Wensleydale!
woofgang, I'm afraid that NoMercy will not be providing you with a link to the research cited as the assertion made in the post are total rubbish. The acid content of cheese is irrelevant and there is no incontrovertible evidence that vegans suffer less "bone related diseases" than dairy consumers
