    Great News, America: Cheese Isn’t Bad for You

    Don’t feel sheepish reaching for that manchego. Cheese doesn’t deserve its unhealthy reputation - Cheese isn't actually bad for you...

    gouda.jpg

    Cheese is among the ultimate guilty pleasures. It’s gooey. It’s fatty. It’s delicious. It just has to be bad for you, right?

    Wrong. A large body of research suggests that cheese’s reputation as a fattening, heart-imperiling food is undeserved. When it comes to weight and other key health outcomes (and setting aside the issue of lactose intolerance, with apologies), cheese is neutral at worst, and possibly even good for you. And yet that research doesn’t seem to have broken through into common knowledge. If you Google “cheese,” the top result under “people also ask” is the ungrammatical query “Why cheese is bad for you?” Now, if you’re the type of person who’s thinking, “What’s the big deal? I eat what I like, in moderation, and don’t worry about calories”—congratulations, I’m happy for you, we have lots of great articles about science and tech you might enjoy.

    If, on the other hand, you’re like me and worry that your diet is making you gradually fatter, keep reading. https://www.wired.com/story/cheese-a...t-bad-for-you/

    Cheese promotes healthy bacteria in your gut, which aids in digestion and, keeping the gut healthy.

    It's also good for the teeth, something to do with that healthy bacteria, destroying the bacteria that causes tooth decay.

    This probably belongs more in the "favorite commercials" thread, but what the Hell.

    I've toured the factory in Tillamook a couple of times. Unlike with some food-related factories, watching them make the cheese actually made me hungry. And of course they have a large, well-stocked gift shop at the end of the tour.
