Cheese Slices Six brands ahead

Cheese can be a source of key nutrients and is a part of the diet of many, more so for vegetarians who look to get more protein from dairy products. While the traditional and natural cheese is vastly superior to processed cheese, the latter has a huge market share due to easy availability, convenience factors and longer shelf life. There are regulations in place for commercially available cheese, with regard to moisture content, milk fat content, bacterial contamination, and packaging and labelling. The following report assesses six brands of cheese slices on these parameters .

Of the six brands, one, Britannia Slimz, is proprietary food. Proprietary food means an article of food that has not been standardised under Food Safety & Standards Regulations. The five other brands are processed cheese slices.
