Leanne and I both love cheese. When we 16 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:39,279 Speaker 1: get together, we will. 17 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 2: Often enjoy a bit of a platter with some bubbles. 18 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 2: And I know that your favorite is a pretty gooey, 19 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 2: a gooey free or camon beer or something. I myself 20 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 2: love a goats cheese and I love a truffled type 21 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 2: of cheese as well. What's your go to that you 22 00:00:58,240 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 2: have to hide from David so it doesn't eat it 23 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 2: all at home? 24 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 3: I do love a bree but I will be honest, 25 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,480 Speaker 3: I only really buy it if we're entertaining, because I 26 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 3: am partial to eating half the half the round of Bree, 27 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,479 Speaker 3: which is not not fabulous for fat loss or postpartum 28 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 3: batloss like I was achieving many months ago. So I 29 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 3: do love a good quality a triple Bree. I also 30 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 3: do love lately I've found this. I think it's a 31 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 3: truffle Sheep's cheese in Coals and Woolworths in like the 32 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 3: you know, the fancy cheese type section, not the normal 33 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:27,960 Speaker 3: sort of sliced cheese section. I just buy a little 34 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 3: bit of that and that it's absolutely amazing in a 35 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:31,959 Speaker 3: couple of whole grain crackers. And the other one I 36 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 3: really do love is Swiss. Like if I'm making a 37 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 3: rapperous sandwich or have got some beautiful, fresh, crusty saldo, 38 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 3: I will put in some Swiss cheese into that. 39 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 1: I do. 40 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 3: I am very partial to some Swiss cheese. 41 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I do include cheese regularly with my client's plans. 42 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 2: You know, I'll al shate between or I often say 43 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 2: cheese once a day, and that's sort of whether they 44 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 2: want to include it in a salad or on a sandwich. 45 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:55,279 Speaker 2: So when we've come to speak today. Because cheese is cheese, 46 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 2: you know, it will range between thirty forty percent fat. Obviously, 47 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 2: there's more indulgent cheeses. Cheddar is cheddar. Even though the 48 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 2: differences are in flavor, the actual nutritional profile very very similar. 49 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 2: So what I wanted to do was highlight some of 50 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 2: the ones we would define as a bit healthier for 51 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 2: different reasons, which will go through, but also ones that 52 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 2: still taste good, because there's nothing worse than being told 53 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 2: to have, you know, a low fat product that doesn't 54 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 2: taste anything like full blown cheese, because cheese is a 55 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 2: high fat food, and so we want to leave some 56 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 2: fat into retain its flavor. So the three that I've 57 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 2: chosen for those reasons a sort of specific on the nutritionals. 58 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 1: So the first one we're going to go through. 59 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 2: Is the bigger, tasty, fifty percent reduce fat, and it's 60 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 2: called Country Light. Now, the reason we've chosen this one 61 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 2: is that there's quite a few light cheeses out there 62 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 2: which are what we will call reduce fat or twenty 63 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 2: five percent less fat, whereas this product is fifty percent 64 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: reduce fat. And this is the only one I can 65 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,799 Speaker 2: find that's that's a lot lower. So when we take 66 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 2: a look at the nutritionals on it, and you can 67 00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 2: buy it in blocks and also slices, and the price 68 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 2: is rain. The block that I'm looking at now is 69 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 2: retailing for about nine dollars fifty per five hundred grams. 70 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 2: And then you can get a big jumbo pack, can't 71 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 2: you for like thirty for nine fifty? 72 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: Is that right? 73 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 3: Thirty slices for nine dollars fifty. 74 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 2: And of course the prices do differ depending on what 75 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 2: the sale is at the time. And now the serving 76 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 2: size is Interestingly, and because it's still twenty five grams, 77 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 2: sometimes in the cheeses will look at they make the 78 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 2: slices really really thin and the serve small, so it 79 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 2: looks less. So I quite like this because they're still 80 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 2: basing it on a reasonable serve, which is about thirty grams. 81 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 2: We would say, is a cheese serve or a couple 82 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 2: of slices. 83 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 3: Mine's seventeen grams on my nutrition. Seventeen grams are slice. 84 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 2: So I've got the block, so it's twenty five, so 85 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 2: it depends if it's slice, so your slices are saying fifteen. 86 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 3: I'm looking at the slice pack the thirty slice packs, 87 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 3: and a slice is seventeen grams, which is quite random 88 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 3: because traditionally a slice of cheese has always been about 89 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 3: twenty grams. 90 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 2: Then I do wonder, because of the cost of milk 91 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 2: and dairy that they're sort of shaving a little bit 92 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 2: off each slice slice size the way they've done with 93 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 2: chocolate without us noticing. So that's a bit cheeky in itself. 94 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 2: But what I do is I look per hundred just 95 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 2: as a comparison, and then we can look say per slice, 96 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 2: so per hundred grams, that comes in just shy of 97 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 2: three hundred calories thirty four grams of protein, So cheese 98 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 2: is a high protein food. But this is fifteen grams 99 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 2: of fat per hundred grams, which is yes, definitely half 100 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 2: a regular cheddar that's about thirty and about twenty twenty 101 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 2: five for a light so certainly higher than ten percent fat, 102 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 2: but sort of in that middle ground. Or per twenty 103 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 2: five grams serve here is three point eight grams, so 104 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 2: that would be less than what two grams per slice 105 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: of cheese, which is really very low as we would expect. 106 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 2: The carbohydrates in significant the sodium six hundred milligrams. 107 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: Cheese is a relatively high. 108 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 2: Salt food, but the calcium is also massive, so you're 109 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,720 Speaker 2: getting nine hundred and forty milligrams per hundred or that 110 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 2: translates into it for a couple of slices about just 111 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 2: shy of two hundred milligrams of calcium, which is a 112 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 2: great which is why if you like cheese and you 113 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 2: have high calcium knees and perhaps and not a milk drinker, 114 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 2: it's a great way to get a serve of calcium. 115 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,479 Speaker 2: So for a product like this leanne the benefit for 116 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 2: me is because it's a bit lower in calories because 117 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 2: it's like sixty calories per slice, and then lower in fat. 118 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 2: I could probably get away with a little bit more 119 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,479 Speaker 2: of it as opposed to just recommending my clients have 120 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 2: twenty grams of it. They could probably get away with 121 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 2: a little bit more. 122 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,919 Speaker 1: And I've had it. It tastes pretty good, you know. 123 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 2: If I was buying sliced cheese, which I can't with 124 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 2: my husband because she just eats them like just one 125 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 2: after the other. I tend to buy grater just for 126 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 2: Porsche control for sandwiches. But if you are a sliced 127 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 2: cheese person, for the family and a cheese that still 128 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 2: tastes good at keeping the calories a bit lower. I'm 129 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 2: a big fan of this product, and it's not easy 130 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 2: to track down, but if you can find it, it 131 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,479 Speaker 2: is sort of nutritionally really high in protein and a 132 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 2: bit lower in fat and calories than regular sort of 133 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 2: cheddar cheese. 134 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 3: I do like sliced cheese because it is portion controlled. 135 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 3: And I'm the opposite of you. You were saying, oh 136 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 3: fair that you don't tend to buy slice cheese because 137 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 3: crystal eat the whole thing, but you buy a block instead, 138 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 3: Versus if I bought a block, no joke, David would 139 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 3: cut the world's largest hunk offered and call that, you know, 140 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 3: a little bit of cheese and put that on a 141 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 3: little bit of a cracker. So I buy the slices 142 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 3: because it is more portion controlled, and I find he 143 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 3: just takes one or two, puts it off some crackers 144 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 3: and walks away. Versus if we buy a whole block, 145 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 3: that block disappears very fast. And cheese is not something 146 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 3: that you would call a cheap food like dairy, and 147 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 3: cheese is more expensive. You know, you look at thirty 148 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 3: slices here for nine dollars fifty. It's definitely not cheap, 149 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 3: it's definitely not budget friendly, but this is one of 150 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 3: the better products on the market. I do buy it. 151 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 3: I quite enjoy it. I really like the nutritionals. The 152 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 3: nutrient label is very clean. You know, the ingredient list 153 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 3: is only a couple of products long, like you would 154 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 3: expect in cheese. It's milk, it's salt, it's some cultures 155 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 3: and some enzymes just to run it being the enzyme 156 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,479 Speaker 3: from dairy. So there's nothing i'd and clean and that 157 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 3: ingredient list put it that way. But it is definitely 158 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 3: a good calorie save if you're somebody who likes cheese, 159 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 3: who eats regularly and does require is that extra boost 160 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 3: of calcium. So I'm very much a fan of giving 161 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 3: my clients a serve of cheese, a serve of milk, 162 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 3: and a serve of yogurt most days if they choose 163 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 3: to taste and eat dairy, and if they are happy 164 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 3: to have it and they tolerate it, well, I'm definitely 165 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 3: a fan of something like a nice cheddar cheese, particularly 166 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 3: put on crackers to put into a wrap, to maybe 167 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 3: put with the eggs for breakfast as well. So this 168 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 3: gets the thumbs up for me. I recommend it, I 169 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 3: use it myself, and I think it tastes pretty good 170 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 3: as well. 171 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, i'd give it really hard give eight or nine, 172 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 2: just because it's such a nutrient dense food and still 173 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 2: tastes pretty good and the fat is lower and definitely 174 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 2: for someone with heart to sease, someone who was really 175 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 2: trying to keep their fat intake controlled. It's a great 176 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 2: product for you. But that leads me onto my next product, 177 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 2: which is a product that I've been in love with 178 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 2: as a dietician since I first graduated. And the reason 179 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 2: I liked it then and it's not dissimilar from the Bear, 180 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 2: is that it was always significantly lower in fat, but 181 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 2: it tasted really good. 182 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: Now it's the Yarlsberg Light. 183 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 2: Now, Yalsberg is a Swiss style cheeseyan, but it's not 184 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 2: from Switzerland, as we've spoken about it. 185 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: It's from Norway. It's a Norwegian brand. 186 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 3: Now. 187 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 2: The reason I've always loved this product and I've loved 188 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 2: it less recently because it's so expensive, But in the 189 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 2: good old days when it was retailing for four fifty 190 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 2: when I first started as a dietitian, the reason I 191 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 2: loved it was it had such a beautiful flavor and 192 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 2: it was so thin and portion controlled. So now the 193 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 2: price has just gone up so much. It's now seven 194 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 2: dollars for one hundred and fifty gram, so much thinner 195 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 2: as you can see. Or you can actually get two 196 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 2: for ten dollars in some supermarkets, which makes it a 197 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 2: bit more budget friendly. But it is only one hundred 198 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 2: and fifty gram thanks to those very thin slices. It's 199 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 2: a secret recipe that comes out of Norway from the 200 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 2: nineteen fifty, so it's one of their big exports in 201 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 2: the dairy area, and it's very thin slices, just fifteen 202 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,599 Speaker 2: grams ten slices per serve. But when we take a 203 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 2: look at the nutritionals very similar to the bigger fifty 204 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 2: percent reduced fat. So the protein's high at thirty one 205 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 2: grams per hundred. It's only sixteen grams of fat and 206 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 2: ten saturated, which is really low for cheese. The sodium, 207 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 2: it doesn't list the calcium on it, but calcium would 208 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 2: be pretty similar to across the board. For a couple 209 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 2: of slices, you'd be getting close to two hundred milligrams. 210 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 2: And again it's pasteurized cow's milk, the enzyme salt back 211 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 2: to your culture. So it's just a cheese I find, 212 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 2: which is really flavors from on sandwiches. It's really thin, 213 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 2: it's delicious. It's got a really nutty flavor, so it's 214 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 2: not as easy to overeat, and you can find it 215 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 2: in blocks as well, and I've just always loved it. 216 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 2: But yeah, my only downside now is it expense wise, 217 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 2: you know, for people on a budget. It's really not 218 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 2: that cheap for families, but yeah, if you enjoy cheese 219 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 2: regularly and want to include a couple of slices a day. 220 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,559 Speaker 2: I'm a big fan of Yelsberg in general, and the 221 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 2: Yelsberg light is that little bit lighter in fat overall. 222 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:45,719 Speaker 3: I'm like you, I've been in this for years. I 223 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 3: remember putting this in my school lunchbox and being the 224 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 3: weird kid that ate the smelly Swiss cheese. 225 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: Do you think it smells? 226 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 3: Do you can? 227 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: It smells well a little bit. 228 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's definitely stronger than like a cheddar or something, 229 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 3: but it's delicious. I love Swiss cheese. I used to 230 00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 3: call it the Holy cheese on the mouse cheese when 231 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 3: I was when I was younger. But you know, I 232 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 3: recommend this for my clients as well. I think it 233 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 3: adds a beautiful taste into something like you know a Turkish, 234 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 3: you know, turkey wrapped with sala in a bit of 235 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 3: Yelsberg light or something, and I'm like you, I get 236 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 3: the light VARIETI as well. It's just that slightly lower 237 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 3: and calories and fat because I am a cheese lover 238 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 3: and I would probably have about two serves a day 239 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 3: of cheese on most occasions. So I do tend to 240 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,079 Speaker 3: go for a lower fat variety because my portions of 241 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 3: cheese are more than what I would generally recommend for 242 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 3: my clothes. 243 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 2: I mean for fellows and anyone who saw me twenty 244 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 2: years ago, I remember how I always we've gone about 245 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 2: the Yldsberg Lite. But I will say, if you can 246 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 2: find it on sale, you're going to save a bit 247 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 2: of cash. And I would also say, coming into party 248 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 2: platter season, that is a great cheese to include because 249 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 2: you can roll it really easily. It looks great on 250 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 2: a platter, and it's a lot lighter than the big 251 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 2: chunks of cheddar that we have in a cube and 252 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 2: often include. All rightly and well, the last one is 253 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 2: a new player actually, and I like it as well. 254 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 2: And it's the Wolworth Swiss Light Cheese. Now it's very 255 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 2: similar I guess you would say nutritionally to y Alsberg. 256 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 2: But the reason I like it is it's got a 257 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 2: good price point of five dollars for two hundred grams. 258 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 2: So that's one of the cheapest that we've looked at, 259 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 2: because as we've spoken about, it's one of the more 260 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 2: expensive items in supermarket. It's got five health stars, interestingly, 261 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 2: whereas I think the others. I think the Beaker came 262 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 2: in at four from memory, but you don't see a 263 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 2: hot of food with five health stars very often as 264 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 2: you do on this product. That's interesting. It's got forty 265 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 2: percent less fat on the label and similar nutritionals as 266 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 2: we would expect from a lighter cheese, about thirty grams 267 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 2: of protein per serve just shive three hundred calories per 268 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 2: hundred grams. I should say thirty grams of protein per 269 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 2: hundred grams, about sixteen percent fat, eleven point five percent saturated, 270 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 2: and again we don't have the numbers on the calcium, 271 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 2: but we would assume it's close to two hundred milligrams 272 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 2: per serve, but sodium is that bit lower, which is 273 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 2: perhaps why it's tick the box on the Health Star ratings. 274 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,559 Speaker 1: It's coming in very low per serve at just. 275 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 2: One hundred milligrams, which is incredibly low for a cheese 276 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 2: and hence, I yeah, I would say definitely that's a 277 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 2: great choice for people with heart disease or blood pressure 278 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 2: issues because not only is it less fat, it's got 279 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 2: the flavor spoken about. It's still a twenty gram size serve, 280 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 2: not a seventeen in the bigger range, and sodium is 281 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 2: really low, like just one hundred milligrams per slice is 282 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 2: incredibly low for a piece of cheese. It's sixty milligrams 283 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 2: for the fifteen gram serve of Yelsberg Light. Ah, They're 284 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,679 Speaker 2: pretty similar across the board, actually, about one hundred milligrams 285 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 2: per serve on them. 286 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:27,839 Speaker 1: So it's a great choice. My clients actually told me 287 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: about this cheese. I hadn't seen it. 288 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 2: They've got a whole range in these kind of packs, 289 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 2: but this is the only light one that I found. 290 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 2: It's got regulars with cheese. You do have to check 291 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 2: out and find the light one with the five health staff. 292 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 2: But a great addition and a great budget friendly cheese 293 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,839 Speaker 2: choice to include frequently if you love it on your 294 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 2: wraps or sandwiches or even with your breakfast as a 295 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 2: really nutrient dense food that still tastes good for a 296 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 2: bit less fat. 297 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 3: This is on high rotation in my household. I buy it, use, 298 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 3: I recommend it. I love it. It's delicious, It is 299 00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 3: a lot more cost effective than the Alsberg one, and 300 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 3: I think it's similar taste. If I'm being honest, I 301 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 3: do think Elsberg does taste a little bit nicer, but 302 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 3: from a budgeting perspective, I do often buy the woolworst one. 303 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,479 Speaker 3: I have just looked up the specs in terms of calcium, 304 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 3: so one twenty gram slice has nearly two hundred milligram, 305 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 3: so roughly between sort of twenty to thirty percent of 306 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 3: the recommended calcium intake for most people. So as we 307 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 3: would expect, it's got a good whack of calcium in there. 308 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,200 Speaker 3: So if you are someone who needs a little bit 309 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 3: of a boost of calcium and you like your cheese, 310 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 3: this one is a very good product. And yeah, I 311 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 3: think it's it's something again big green light from me, 312 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 3: Like it's rare that we review three products that we 313 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 3: actually really like. But today I think, you know, being 314 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 3: cheese lovers, we really wanted to show our listeners which 315 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 3: ones we go to you know, regularly, and really do recommend. 316 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 2: True because you know, we know that things like colomium 317 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 2: bre are a little bit heavier, and we don't want 318 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 2: to bag out cheese in general. It's such a nutrient rich, 319 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 2: fabulous whole food. But I do want to highlight that 320 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 2: there are some good options that are that bit lighter, 321 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 2: as I said, particularly coming into party season and platter season. 322 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 1: So we will put photos. 323 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 2: All of those on our social media and our Instagram 324 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 2: feed and give them a go and let us know 325 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 2: what you think. But thumbs up from us on all 326 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 2: of those varieties, and you know, there's only a handful, 327 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 2: but they're pretty good. And just as a final point, 328 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 2: the other cheeses that I tend to go with with 329 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 2: my clients, remember mozzarella is that a little bit lighter 330 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 2: in fat as well, and you can find that in 331 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 2: graded varieties, as is ricotta. 332 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: Let's not forget. 333 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 2: Ricotta is really high in protein, it's a much lower 334 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 2: in fat.
