Watch the cholesterol...
While cholesterol has been shown to be less harmful than once believed, you should not consume more than 300mg a day. This product contains more than 10% of your daily cholesterol intake. If you're on a low cholesterol diet, make sure you pay attention to portion: 10% of your daily allowance can quickly become 50% when a hamburger turns into double cheeseburger. Trouble sticking to daily goals? Try limiting your meat, cheese and dairy intake to one item per meal and avoid items with multiple sources of cholesterol (like chicken with ham and cheese, breakfast sandwiches with sausage and cheese or bacon cheeseburgers). Opt for items like BLT's, chicken sandwiches with veggies and meatless pizza. Choose water and not milk for your main mealtime beverage.

Not a good source of calcium!
Cheese is a generally a good source of calcium (more than 10% daily value per serving) - but not the one you just scanned. If you are looking for calcium - swap for something with higher calcium content. By the way, you don't need high fat or calories to get high calcium. Many "lite" versions of cheese provide 30% of daily calcium needs. Choose cheeses that are a naturally good source of calcium. If you're worried about fat and calories, pre-sliced cheese, cheese sticks or cheese squares are a great way to make sure your portion is the right size. The FDA defines a serving of cheese as 1 ounce (30 grams).

If milk is white, why is cheese yellow?
Milk is not pure white. It actually contains a yellowish / orange pigment that comes from the grass that cows eat. The process of cheesemaking removes most of the liquid component from milk, leaving a higher concentration of the pigment and hence a yellow color. That said, many cheeses do have added coloring, whether natural (Annatto) or artificial (yellow #5) When choosing your cheese, opt for a a product that did not have artificial colors added.
