About Light feta cheese

Light Feta Cheese is a reduced-fat version of the traditional Greek cheese made primarily from sheep’s milk, goat’s milk, or a combination of both. Famous for its crumbly texture and tangy, salty flavor, it is a staple in Mediterranean cuisine and commonly used in salads, wraps, and baked dishes. Compared to regular feta, the light variety contains fewer calories and less saturated fat, making it a healthier choice for those mindful of their dietary fat intake. It is a source of protein, calcium, and essential nutrients like phosphorus, which support bone health. However, it is relatively high in sodium, which may be a concern for individuals watching their salt intake. Light Feta Cheese is an excellent option for adding flavor and versatility to meals while supporting balanced nutrition in a Mediterranean-inspired diet.
