Cheese

[jsimon]

Does anyone know how much calories,fat and protein is in 1 slice of white american cheese?

[SwoleCat]

Depends on the size/thickness (weight) of the slice.

Did it come in a package w/the information per slice? Cheese I get always does.

~SC~

[jsimon]

no...thats a good idea though. I got it fresh from the Deli. Im pretty sure its the same size and weight as one you would get in the square packages though.

i doubt one square slice of american cheese is gonna have 400 calories like 100g of cheddar.

80 to 100 calories 5-8 protein, 5-8 fat, 0 Carbs is typical of a slice of cheese.

Can eating cheese be part of a nutritional factor for your daily protein intake?

i would say yes...the protein is whey and casein (mostly casein i believe) which has very good bioavailability and stays in your system very long.

Great way to get more cheese is to use Part Skim Mozzerella, damn good too.

fat free cheddar in my morning egg whites adds some flavor and a second slower digesting form of protein
