Now, cheese, Leanne, you and I both 14 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 1: love cheese. When we get together, we will often enjoy 15 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: a bit of a flatter with some bubbles, and I 16 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: know that your favorite is a pretty gooey, a gooey 17 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 1: free or camon beer or something. I myself love a 18 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 1: goats cheese and I love a truffled to hype of 19 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: cheese as well. What's your go to that you have 20 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: to hide from David so it doesn't eat it all 21 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: at home? 22 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 2: I do love a bree, but I will be honest, 23 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 2: I only really buy it if we're entertaining, because I 24 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 2: am partial to eating half the half the round of Bree, 25 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 2: which is not not fabulous for fat loss or postpartum 26 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 2: fat looss like I was achieving many months ago. So 27 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 2: I do love a good quality a triple Bree. I 28 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 2: also do love lately I've found this. I think it's 29 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 2: a truffle Sheep's cheese in Coals and Woolworths in like 30 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 2: the you know, the fancy cheese type section, not the 31 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 2: normal sort of sliced cheese section. I just buy a 32 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 2: little bit of that, and that's absolutely amazing in a 33 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:31,959 Speaker 2: couple of whole grain crackers. And the other one I 34 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 2: really do love is Swiss. Like if I'm making a 35 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 2: rapperous sandwich or I've got some beautiful, fresh, crusty saldo, 36 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 2: I will put in some Swiss cheese into that. I do. 37 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 2: I am very partial to some Swiss cheese. 38 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I do include cheese regularly with my clients plans. 39 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: You know, I'll al shnate between. I often say cheese 40 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: once a day, and that's sort of whether they want 41 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: to include it in a salad or on a sandwich. 42 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 1: So when we've come to speak today. Because cheese is cheese, 43 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: you know, it will range between thirty forty percent fat. Obviously, 44 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: there's more indulgent cheeses. Cheddar is cheddar. Even though the 45 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: differences are in flavor, the actual nutritional profile very very similar. 46 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: So what I wanted to do was highlight some of 47 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 1: the ones we would define as a bit healthier for 48 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: different reasons, which will go through, but also ones that 49 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: still taste good, because there's nothing worse than being told 50 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: to have, you know, a low fat product that doesn't 51 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: taste anything like full blown cheese, because cheese is a 52 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: high fat food, and so we want to leave some 53 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: fat into retain its flavor. So the three that I've 54 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: chosen for those reasons a sort of specific on the nutritionals. 55 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,920 Speaker 1: So the first one we're going to go through is 56 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 1: the bigger, tasty, fifty percent reduce fat, and it's called 57 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: Country Light. Now, the reason we've chosen this one is 58 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 1: that there's quite a few light cheeses out there which 59 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,239 Speaker 1: are what we will call reduce fat or twenty five 60 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:49,679 Speaker 1: percent less fat, whereas this product is fifty percent reduce fat. 61 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,639 Speaker 1: And this is the only one I can find that's 62 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,079 Speaker 1: that's a lot lower. So when we take a look 63 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,519 Speaker 1: at the nutritionals on it, and you can buy it 64 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: in blocks and also slices, and the prices range. The 65 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: block that I'm looking at now is retailing for about 66 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: nine dollars fifty per five hundred grams, and then you 67 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: can get a big jumbo pack, can't you for like 68 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: thirty for nine to fifty? Is that right? 69 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 2: Thirty slices for nine dollars fifty. 70 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: And of course the prices do differ depending on what 71 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: the sale is at the time. And now the serving 72 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: size is. Interestingly, and because it's still twenty five grams, 73 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: sometimes in the cheeses will look at they make the 74 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: slices really really thin and the service small so it 75 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: looks less. So I quite like this because they're still 76 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: basing it on a reasonable serve, which is about thirty grams. 77 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: We would say, is a cheese serve or a couple 78 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 1: of slices? 79 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 2: Mine seventeen grams on my nutrition seventeen grams. 80 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: Are slice, So I've got the block, so it's twenty five, 81 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: so it depends if it's slice, so your slices are 82 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 1: saying fifteen. 83 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 2: I'm looking at the slice pack of thirty slice packs 84 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 2: and as a slice is seventeen grams, so which is 85 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 2: quite random because traditionally a slice of cheese has always 86 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 2: been about twenty grams. 87 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: Then I do wonder, because of the cost of milk 88 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: and dairy that they're sort of shaving a little bit 89 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: off each slice slice size the way they've done with 90 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: chocolate without us noticing. So that's a bit cheapy in itself. 91 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: But what I do is I look per hundred just 92 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: as a comparison, and then we can look say per slice, 93 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: so per hundred grams, that comes in just shy of 94 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: three hundred calories thirty four grams of protein, So cheese 95 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: is a high protein food. But this is fifteen grams 96 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: of fat per hundred grams, which is yes, definitely half 97 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: a regular cheddar that's about thirty and about twenty twenty 98 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:30,039 Speaker 1: five for a light so certainly higher than ten percent fat, 99 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: but sort of in that middle ground. Or per twenty 100 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: five grams serve here is three point eight grams, so 101 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: that would be less than what two grams per slice 102 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 1: of cheese, which is really very low as we would expect. 103 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: The carbohydrates insignificant, The sodium six hundred milligrams. Cheese is 104 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: a relatively high salt food, but the calcium is also massive, 105 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: so you're getting nine hundred and forty milligrams per hundred 106 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: or that translates into for a couple of slices about 107 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 1: just shy of two hundred milligrams of calcium, which is 108 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: a great which is why if you like cheese and 109 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,919 Speaker 1: you have high calcium knees and perhaps and not a 110 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: milk drinker, it's a great way to get a serve 111 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: of calcium. So for a product like this leanne the 112 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: benefit for me is because it's a bit lower in 113 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: calories because it's like sixty calories per slice, and then 114 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 1: lower in fat. I could probably get away with a 115 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: little bit more of it as opposed to just recommending 116 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: my clients have twenty grams of it. They could probably 117 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 1: get away with a little bit more. And I've had 118 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 1: it tastes pretty good. 119 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 2: You know. 120 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: If I was buying sliced cheese, which I can't with 121 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: my husband because he just eats them like just one 122 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: after the other. I tend to buy grater just for 123 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: portion control for sandwiches. But if you are a sliced 124 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: cheese person for the family and a cheese that still 125 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: tastes good at keeping the calories a bit lower. I'm 126 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 1: a big fan of this product, and it's not easy 127 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 1: to track down, but if you can find it, it 128 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,479 Speaker 1: is sort of nutritionally really high in protein and a 129 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: bit lower in fat and calories than regular sort of 130 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 1: cheddar cheese. 131 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 2: I do like sliced cheese because it is portion controlled. 132 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 2: And I'm the opposite of you. You were saying, oh 133 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 2: fair that you don't tend to buy sliced cheese because 134 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 2: crystal eat the whole thing, but you buy a block instead, 135 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 2: Versus if I bought a block, no joke, David would 136 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 2: cut the world's largest hunk offered and call that, you know, 137 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 2: a little bit of cheese and put that on a 138 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 2: little bit of a cracker. So I buy the slices 139 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 2: because it is more portion controlled, and I find he 140 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 2: just takes one or two, puts it on some crackers 141 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,559 Speaker 2: and walks away. Versus if we buy a whole block, 142 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 2: that block disappears very fast. And cheese is not something 143 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 2: that you would call a cheap food like dairy, and 144 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 2: cheese is more expensive. You know, you look at thirty 145 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 2: slices here for nine dollars fifty. It's definitely not cheap, 146 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,599 Speaker 2: it's definitely not budget friendly, but this is one of 147 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 2: the better products on the market. I do buy it. 148 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 2: I quite enjoy it. I really like the nutritionals. The 149 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,039 Speaker 2: nutrient label is very clean. You know, the ingredient list 150 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 2: is only a couple of products long, like you would 151 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 2: expect in cheese. It's milk, it's salt, it's some cultures 152 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 2: and some enzymes just to run it being the enzyme 153 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 2: from dairy. So there's nothing unclean, and that ingredient list 154 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 2: put it that way. But it is definitely a good 155 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 2: calorie save if you're somebody who likes cheese, who eats 156 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,160 Speaker 2: regularly and does require is that extra boost of calcium. 157 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 2: So I'm very much a fan of giving my clients 158 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,039 Speaker 2: a serve of cheese, a serve of milk, and a 159 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 2: serve of yogurt most days if they choose to taste 160 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 2: and eat dairy, and if they are happy to have 161 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 2: it and they tolerate it, well, I'm definitely a fan 162 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 2: of something like a nice cheddar cheese, particularly put on 163 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 2: crackers to put into a wrap, to maybe put with 164 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 2: the eggs for breakfast as well. So this gets the 165 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 2: thumbs up for me. I recommend it, I use it myself, 166 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 2: and I think it tastes pretty good as well. 167 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, i'd give it really high got eight or nine, 168 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: just because it's such a nutrient dense food and still 169 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: tastes pretty good and the fat is lower, and definitely 170 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: for someone with heart disease, someone who was really trying 171 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 1: to keep their fat intake controlled, it's a great product 172 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: for you. But that leads me onto my next product, 173 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 1: which is a product that I've been in love with 174 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: as a dietician since I first graduated. And the reason 175 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 1: I liked it then and it's not dissimilar from the Bear, 176 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: is that it was always significantly lower in fat, but 177 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: it tasted really good. Now it's the Yelsberg Light. Now, 178 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,040 Speaker 1: Yalsberg is a Swiss style cheese land, but it's not 179 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 1: from Switzerland, as we've spoken about it. It's from Norway. 180 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: It's a Norwegian brand. 181 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 2: Now. 182 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 1: The reason I've always loved this product and I've loved 183 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: it less recently because it's so expensive, But in the 184 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 1: good old days when it was retailing for four fifty 185 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: when I first started as a dietitian, the reason I 186 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: loved it was it had such a beautiful flavor and 187 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: it was so thin and portion controlled. So now the 188 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,119 Speaker 1: price has just gone up so much. It's now seven 189 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: dollars for one hundred and fifty gram, so much thinner 190 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 1: as you can see. Or you can actually get two 191 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: for ten dollars in some supermarkets, which makes it a 192 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,239 Speaker 1: bit more budget friendly. But it is only one hundred 193 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: and fifty gram thanks to those very thin slices. It's 194 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: a secret recipe that comes out of Norway from the 195 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: nineteen fifty, so it's one of their big exports in 196 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: the dairy area. And it's very thin slices, just fifteen 197 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: grams ten slices per serve. But when we take a 198 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: look at the nutritionals very similar to the bigger fifty 199 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: percent reduced fat. So the protein's high at thirty one 200 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: grams per hundred. It's only sixteen grams of fat and 201 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: ten saturated, which is really low for cheese. The sodium, 202 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 1: it doesn't list the calcium on it, but calcium would 203 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 1: be pretty similar to across the board. For a couple 204 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,559 Speaker 1: of slices, you'd be getting close to two hundred milligrams. 205 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: And again it's pasteurized cow's milk. The enzyme salt back 206 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: to your culture. So it's just a cheese I find, 207 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: which is really flavor from on sandwiches. It's really thin, 208 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,839 Speaker 1: it's delicious. It's got a really nutty flavor, so it's 209 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: not as easy to overeat and you can find it 210 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: in blocks as well, and I've just always loved it. 211 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 1: But yeah, my only downside now is it expense wise, 212 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: you know, for people on a budget. It's really not 213 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: that cheap for families, but yeah, if you enjoy cheese 214 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: regularly and want to include a couple of slices a day. 215 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of Yelsberg in general, and the 216 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: Yelsberg light is that little bit lighter in fat. 217 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 2: Overall, I'm like you, I've been in this for years. 218 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 2: I remember putting this in my school lunch box and 219 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 2: being the weird kid that ate the smelly Swiss cheese. 220 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: Do you think it smells? 221 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:53,839 Speaker 2: Do you reckon? It smells well a little bit. Yeah, 222 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 2: it's definitely stronger than like a cheddar or something, but 223 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 2: it's delicious. I love Swiss cheese. I used to call 224 00:09:57,960 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 2: it the holy cheese on the mouse cheese, and I 225 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 2: was when I was younger, but you know, I recommend 226 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 2: this for my clients as well. I think it adds 227 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 2: a beautiful taste into something like you know a Turkish 228 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 2: you know, turkey wrapp with sala in a bit of 229 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 2: Yelsberg light or something, and I'm like you, I get 230 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 2: the light varieties as well. It's just that slightly lower 231 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,079 Speaker 2: and calories and fat because I am a cheese lover 232 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 2: and I would probably have about two serves a day 233 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,719 Speaker 2: of cheese on most occasions, so I do tend to 234 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 2: go for a lower fat variety because my portions of 235 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 2: cheese are more than what I would generally recommend for 236 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 2: my clothes. I mean for that loss. 237 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 1: And anyone who saw me twenty years ago, I remember 238 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: how I always we've gone about the Yeldsburg life. But 239 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: I will say, if you can find it on sale, 240 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: you're going to save a bit of cash. And I 241 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: would also say, coming into party platter season, that is 242 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: a great cheese to include because you can roll it 243 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,439 Speaker 1: really easily. It looks great on a platter, and it's 244 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: a lot lighter than the big chunks of cheddar that 245 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: we have in a cube and often include. All rightly, 246 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 1: and well, the last one is a new player actually, 247 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 1: and I like it as well, and it's the Woolworth 248 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,559 Speaker 1: Swiss Light Cheese. Now it's very similar I guess you 249 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: would say nutritionally to y Alsberg. But the reason I 250 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: like it is it's got a good price point of 251 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,559 Speaker 1: five dollars for two hundred grams, So that's one of 252 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: the cheapest that we've looked at, because as we've spoken about, 253 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,319 Speaker 1: it's one of the more expensive items in supermarket. It's 254 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: got five health stars. Interestingly, whereas I think the others. 255 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 1: I think the Beaker came in at four from memory, 256 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 1: but you don't see a hot of food with five 257 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: health stars very often as you do on this product. 258 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: That's interesting. It's got forty percent less fat on the 259 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 1: label and similar nutritionals as we would expect from a 260 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 1: lighter cheese, about thirty grams of protein per serve just 261 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: shive three hundred calories per hundred grams, I should say 262 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: thirty grams of per hundred grams, about sixteen percent fat, 263 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 1: eleven point five percent saturated, and again we don't have 264 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: the numbers on the calcium, but we would assume it's 265 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: close to two hundred milligrams per serve. But sodium is 266 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 1: that bit lower, which is perhaps why it's tick the 267 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 1: box on the Health Star ratings. It's coming in very 268 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 1: low per serve at just one hundred milligrams, which is 269 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: incredibly low for a cheese and hence, I yeah, I 270 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 1: would say definitely that's a great choice for people with 271 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 1: heart disease or blood pressure issues because not only is 272 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: it less fat, it's got the flavor we've spoken about. 273 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 1: It's still a twenty gram size serve, not a seventeen 274 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: in the bigger range, and sodium is really low, like 275 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,839 Speaker 1: just one hundred milligrams per slice is incredibly low for 276 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: a piece of cheese. It's sixty milligrams for the fifteen 277 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,679 Speaker 1: gram serve of Yelsberg Light. Oh, they're pretty similar across 278 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 1: the board, actually about one hundred milligrams per serve on them. 279 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: So it's a great choice. My clients actually told me 280 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: about this cheese. I hadn't seen it. They've got a 281 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 1: whole range in these kind of packs, but this is 282 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: the only light one that I found. It's got regulars 283 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: with cheese. You do have to check out and find 284 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: the light one with the five health staff. But a 285 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: great addition and a great budget friendly cheese choice to 286 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: include frequently if you love it on your wraps or 287 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: sandwiches or even with your breakfast as a really nutrient 288 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: dense food that still tastes good for a bit less fat. 289 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 2: This is on high rotation in my household. I buy it, 290 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 2: use it, I recommend it. I love it. It's delicious. 291 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 2: It is a lot more cost effective than the Alsberg one, 292 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,439 Speaker 2: and I think it's similar taste. If I'm being honest, 293 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,560 Speaker 2: I do think Elsberg does taste a little bit nicer, 294 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 2: but from a budgeting perspective, I do often buy the 295 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 2: wool worst one. I have just looked up the specs 296 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 2: in terms of calcium, so one twenty gram slice has 297 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 2: nearly two hundred milligram, so roughly between sort of twenty 298 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 2: to thirty percent of the recommended calcium intake for most people. 299 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:20,680 Speaker 2: So as we would expect, it's got a good whack 300 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 2: of calcium in there. So if you are someone who 301 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 2: needs a little bit of a boost of calcium and 302 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 2: you like your cheese, this one is a very good product. 303 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 2: And yeah, I think it's it's something again big green 304 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 2: light for me, Like it's rare that we review three 305 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 2: products that we actually really like. But today I think 306 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 2: you know, being cheese lovers, we really wanted to show 307 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 2: our listeners which ones we go to you know, regularly, 308 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 2: and really do recommend. 309 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: True because you know, we know that things like Columium 310 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 1: brea are a little bit heavier, and we don't want 311 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: to bag out cheese in general. It's such a nutrient rich, 312 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: fabulous whole food. But I do want to highlight that 313 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: there are some good options that are that bit lighter, 314 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: as I said, particularly coming into party season and platter season. 315 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,439 Speaker 1: So we will put photos all of those on our 316 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: social media, on our Instagram feed and give them a 317 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 1: go and let us know what you think. But thumbs 318 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 1: up from us on all of those varieties, and you know, 319 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 1: there's only a handful, but they're pretty good. And just 320 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: as a final point, the other cheeses that I tend 321 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 1: to go with with my clients, remember mozzarella is that 322 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:14,599 Speaker 1: a little bit lighter in fat as well, and you 323 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: can find that in graded varieties, as is ricotta. Let's 324 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: not forget Ricotta's really high in protein, it's a much 325 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: lower in fat. It's delicious, it goes beautifully with toast 326 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 1: and tomato, so don't forget your recotta as well. As 327 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: another great slightly lighted cheese that has all the nutritional 328 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: benefits of regular cheese for a bit less fat and calories. 329 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: All right, well, that brings us to the end of 330 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: the Nutrition Couch product review.
