Is there saturated fat in it? How about cholesterol? The cheese in the blue shaker was a good cheese flavor and was free of sat. fat and chloresterol

Kristie, believe it or not there is no nutrition information on this container, just the ingredients. Therefore there is no way to answer your question...: (

Hi Kristi - The nutrition is listed on Frontier Foods organic version of this product. I have used both brands and am fairly certain that it all comes from Kraft foods. http://www.frontiercoop.com/products.php?cn=Cheese+Powder. Click on "label info" to get a nutritional chart. It has 8 grams of saturated fat and a whopping 1250 mg sodium in 1/2 cup. The stuff is delicious but way too high in sodium.

There isn't a nutritional label on the product, I figure if you are eating cheddar cheese powder the last thing you should worry about is sat. fat or chloresterol!!

Quoting directly from the list of ingredients on the box, the only items listed are whole grain popping corn, palm oil, salt, and mixed tocopherols (for freshness). Nope, there's no hint of butter or dairy, just a lot of flavor.

It is somewhat salty, not unlike the cheese powder you'd find in a box of Kraft mac & cheese, but spread out over popcorn, it's tasty. I bought this powdered cheese because it is much less salty than the awful, awful "popcorn seasoning" you find in little shakers in the grocery store. THAT stuff IS pure salt.

depending on the fat content, I use fat-free, Oikos has a plain fat-free cup. I mistakenly picked up a fat-free vanilla flavored instead of plain and it made really tasty yogurt.

THIS PRODUCT HAS TRANS FAT!!!I was amazed by all the positive reviews when after receiving my cheese, the ingredients included partially hydrogenated soybean oil which is a trans fat. Also, there isn't a trans fat section on the nutrition label like store bought brands. Was very disappointed and horrified.

Hello Nancy--I cut this off the Barry Farm web site (I found it when I searched barry farm cheese powder): Whey (milk), Buttermilk, Corn Syrup Solids, Modified Food Starch (corn), Salt, Dry Shortening (partially hydrogenated soybean oil, corn syrup solids, sodium caseinate (milk)), Cheddar & Romano Cheese (milk)(Cultured Pasteurized Milk, Salt, Enzymes), Sodium Phosphate, Silicon Dioxide (anti-caking agent), Corn Starch, Natural Flavor, Partially Hydrogenated Soybean oil, Turmeric Extract, Citric Acid, Lactic Acid and Annatto Extract. NOT a health food item... okay in my house for once in a blue moon treat. It may not be so in yours. Normally I stay away from corn syrup based products if nothing else, and my husband (who does nearly all the cooking) uses fresh foods/veggies, limited sauces etc. Overall very healthy so the rare 'cheese product' is acceptable. To Me. Here is the 'nutrition fact' box copied/pasted as well: NutritionFacts Serving size: 2tsp Amount per serving Calories 15 Calories from fat 5 % Daily Value * Total Fat 0.5g 1% Saturated Fat 0g Trans Fats 0g 0% Cholesterol 0mg 0% Sodium 220mg 73% Total Carbohydrate 4g 1% Dietary Fiber 0g Sugars 2 g 0% Protein 1g 2% Percent values are based on a 2,000 calorie per day diet. Your daily values may differ.

the back of the jar says "100% organic essential fat without the risks of oxidized cholesterol, trans fatty acids, or hydrogenated fats" and.....no sodium, no trans fats, non oxidized cholesterol, gluten free, high CLA, no GMOs, phenolic antioxidants

Hi! I am in natural healthcare and have used these shakes off and on for several years. This product is very low in calories, fat, and sugar, making it a good option for most diabetics to supplement their diet. It does have some fake sugars, which can affect the nerves, but most things low fat have some if not more. I don't know of a direct correlation to this and prostate cancer. It is loaded with nutrients, which gives the body more "fuel" to run. I use it with almond milk instead of cow's milk because the dairy slows my system. The shake mix has cassein in it (milk protein), but that doesn't bother me. I have read some research looking at the link between dairy and cancer, but that really addresses what you choose to mix the powder with instead of the shake ingredients. As with anything, I would start slow to see how my body responds and wouldn't overdo it. I have had clients use it as supplemental nutrition, as a meal replacement, and as a protein shake while working out. Most of them seemed happy with their results.

I've replaced butter with dairy free margarine (Earth Balance!) and it's turned out just as nice! :)

Good morning Nancy ... It looks like Jackie-the-Greyhound did a good job in presenting the ingredients. In reviewing the evaluation of the product you get a good overview. For the times I've used it I've been satisfied with the extra-added flavor. On the History Channel I've seen how potato flakes are made and was encouraged to learn that preservatives are necessary to keep good consistency. I would think this cheese uses the same concept of removing the moisture of the cheese and then drying it. I know I'm probably sounding goofy hear but while it probably doesn't fall into the 'health food' category it's a good product. Good morning Nancy ...

There are saturated fats, polyunsaturated fats, and mono-unsaturated fats. Saturated fats are the ones that should be avoided. Partially hydrogenated means that these are not saturated although it does not say to what extent. Olive oil is mono-unsaturated and it is considered good. There is no claim made that this product is health food only that it is sugar free. Also note that some sugar substitutes are considered problematic. If you want to eat only health food, go organic.

I've used Orville Redenbacher's butter flavoured oil, and some shake-on stuff that I bought at WalMart, and it's fine. I haven't experimented much as I prefer just to pop the corn and add butter and salt after it's popped.

Fat is: Total 2g (3% Daily Value), Saturated fat 1g (3% DV), Trans Fat 0gCholesterol is 60mg (20%DV).As for whether it's creamy, I'd describe it as smooth. It depends on how much water you choose to add to vary it, but I have stuck with the recommended 8oz. :-)

Chocolate peanut butter is like drinking a *Reeses cup shake. Seriously, amazing (and thats mixed with water! I havn't tried with milk yet.) I've also heard good things about strawberry. Regardless of the flavor you choose, make sure it's extremely cold when you drink it. That always helps.

I've read the ingredients and they seem kosher to me. The cheese flavor comes from nutritional yeast & it's a raw food . It was created by Penny Horowitz. You can google "alive and radiant" to look at ingredients if you'd like. I love the taste & it's very healthy. Hope this helps.
