About Block feta cheese
Block feta cheese is a staple in Mediterranean cuisine, originating from Greece and made primarily from sheep's milk or a mixture of sheep's and goat's milk. It has a crumbly texture and tangy, salty flavor that complements salads, pastries, and grilled dishes perfectly. Packed with protein and calcium, feta supports bone health and muscle function, while also providing important vitamins such as B12 and riboflavin. However, its high sodium content necessitates moderation, especially for those monitoring their salt intake. Feta is relatively lower in fat compared to some other cheeses, especially when opting for varieties made with skim milk. Its versatility and distinctive taste make it a flavorful addition to a balanced diet, but consuming it in controlled portions ensures you enjoy its benefits without overindulging in fats and sodium.
