Cheese is one of the fattiest foods you can eat, and it's also high in unhealthy saturated fats. However, it also adds calcium, flavor, and satiety to your meals. Both of these cheeses are rich in flavor. Feta, a soft cheese, usually tops Greek salads and pastas. Cheddar also goes great on salad, sandwiches, and by itself. Which cheesy delight will set you back the fewest calories and fat? The Winner: Feta!  A 1-ounce serving of feta cheese provides 80 calories and 6 grams of fat. This makes it a better choice than cheddar, which contains 120 calories and 10 grams of fat per serving. Next time you're about to top a salad with cheddar, think again! Try to choose low-fat or fat-free cheeses whenever possible. A fat-free serving of cheddar is much healthier than its full-fat counterpart, with only 45 calories and less than half a gram of fat.
