Analysis reveals healthiest and unhealthiest cheeses at Tesco, Asda, and M&S

A recent analysis of supermarket cheeses highlights the healthiest and unhealthiest options available at Tesco, Asda, and M&S. Dietitian Emma Shafqat emphasizes that while cheese is nutritious, its high fat and salt content can lead to excessive calorie intake during the festive season. Among the cheeses reviewed, Tesco's Roquefort is noted as the saltiest, while Boursin French Garlic and Herb is the fattiest. Cathedral City Mature Cheddar ranks as the most calorific cheese. Shafqat advises choosing stronger-flavored cheeses to control portion sizes and pairing them with fruits for added nutrition. Other notable cheeses include Asda's Gruyere, which is high in protein but also high in fat, and M&S's Blue Stilton, which is rich in flavor but calorie-dense. Moderation is recommended for all cheese selections to maintain a balanced diet.
