Cheesy

There is quite a difference in the fat content. Perhaps you would find it better to do your own investigations about this via the web. However, you could also try the low fat type of cheese ... not to my taste but it would be an option.

May I also take the opportunity to point out that regarding taking statins... it is well documented that these can have very nasty side effects to some people causing a lot of severe aching in the joints and if you are already having problems in that area it can get very bad!

Having reached the good age of 78 do you really need to take them especially as it is being prescribed as a "precaution"?

Regarding the original question re lancashire cow's cheese and lancashire goat's cheese:

Actually, I like the sound of your breakfast and will try it. But I will have a sliced tomato too.

All,

I have deleted all of the comments re statins as the original question was simply about fat content in cheese and this had turned into an off topic argument about benefits or otherwise of statins.

If a user wants to specifically ask opinions on taking statins then this is a separate discussion. If anyone wants to have a discussion on the pros or cons of statins please start a new discussion.

Regards,

Alan

Next time I am in a super market will have a look at fat content in cheese as my cholestrol has gone up, strangely enough so has cheese intake. Very silly of me this I should have been aware of. this.
