    Mozzarella cheese for cutting?

    I am trying to find foods really high in protein and low in carbs and fat. I saw that non-fat shredded mozarella cheese has like 35 grams of protein per cup and like 4 carbs. This sounds like a very good food option but it sounds too good to be true. I love cheese and melting like 1/2 a cup over my rice and chicken meal would be great but there must be a catch...is it ok for cutting?

    Sounds fine to me. Generally the sugar in milk products isn't great for cutting, but 4 grams of carbs to 35 grams of protein seems like a good ratio. If it tastes ok, i say GO FOR IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Although I would suggest you take it out from about 2-3 weeks out from competition... At other times, if it fits into your daily allocation amounts, then it is fine.

    Actually, I've had some fat free cheddar that was really really good. It hardly tasted any different at all, and it still had a great taste.

    I would disagree. Not because I don't think cheese is fine because in small quantities, I think it's good. However, the stuff you are buying is pure crap. It's not cheese and it's nothing but a bunch of crap, chemicals and preservatives. You would be much better off with the real thing instead of this Kraft cheese like stuff.
