The Best Cheese To Buy At The Grocery Store...And What To Avoid!

This cheese review video was a highly requested! Which is why I wanted to give a thorough breakdown of all the types of cheeses at the grocery store. We cover block cheese, sliced cheese, grated, feta, cottage, cream, vegan, mac & cheese, and more. The quality of the milk is the most important thing when buying cheese. If you can afford it, try to get grass-fed and/or organic cheese. The nutritional profile is way better for you and it's also better for the environment, the farmer, and the cows. The ingredients in cheese are very simple and pretty much the same across all brands, what makes the difference is how good the cheese-maker is and how good the dairy is. Check out more info down below ad let us know what grocery aisle we should hit next! Mad love Bobby...Dessi...and Art! XOXO

My favorite grass-fed cheeses:
Organic valley raw cheddar cheese
Maple hill raw grass-fed cheese
Aldi’s grass-fed cheddar
Kerrygold dubliner
Trader Joe's New Zealand cheddar slices & block
My other favorite cheese brands:
Organic valley...anything by them
Horizon organic slices & snacking cheese
Applegate organic or pasture raised slices
My favorite snacking cheese:
Organic valley string cheese
Horizon organic string cheese
Organic valley american singles
Natural valley goat or colby cheese stick(Whole Foods)
Plant based & Non-dairy cheese:
The only brand I like is Violife bc they don't have natural flavors, and it tastes and melts pretty good.
Cottage cheese brands I like:
Organic valley
Nancy's probiotic
Kalona supernatural
Good culture
Green valley(lactose free)
Cream cheese:
organic valley
Kite hill(dairy free) is by far the best vegan cream cheese I've tried.
Organic powdered cheeses on Amazon(can't find grass-fed):
White cheddar: amzn.to/32poW9D or amzn.to/2l5IoXE
The other ones have natural flavors or maltodextrin, so look out!
Best cheese to eat if your lactose intolerant:
Muenster: 0-1.1% lactose range
Camembert: 0-1.8% lactose range
Brie: 0-2% lactose range
Cheddar: 0-2.1% lactose range
Provolone: 0-2.1% lactose range
Gouda: 0-2.2% lactose range
Blue: 0-2.5% lactose range
Parmesan & Pecorino: 0-3.2% lactose range
Swiss: 0-3.4% lactose range

I was raised on unpasteurized milk and cheese (I'm Irish, my grandparents were farmers, plenty of grassfed cows and free milk because of that). I developed a serious case of lactose intolerance because of it - before the age of two. Raw milk is far stronger and creamier than pasteurized milk. It's delicious but a word of warning: sometimes it's pasteurized for a reason and unpasteurized milk and dairy may not suitable for everyone.

[@VickiTakacs.]

Mel I am finding out that wheat and peanut butter affects everyone negatively but most just don't know it yet. So it doesn't surprise me about dairy. That being said, it's pasteurized to kill any health benefits and is why they add synthetic vit D. All of our food has been messed with and it isn't done for our benefit.

[@satoshiketchump]

@@VickiTakacs. hey there, it's pasteurized so that we don't get salmonella, e.coli, campylobacteria, etc. Not everything is a big conspiracy by big pharma. Unless you suck milk right from a cow's teats and have the digestive system and immunity of a calf, you may get sick from drinking unpasteurized milk, especially if it stays in the temperature danger zone for a long time. And another thing, calcium cannot be absorbed into the body to form into bones without the presence of vitamin d. And no, gluten and peanuts are not poison. Maybe only for the very tiny percentage of humans allergic to them, but not all.

Professional cheesemonger and cheese educator here. Lots of great tips for the average shopper. Thank you for taking the time to do this! But here's a suggestion for everyone: look at who your local cheesemakers are and support local businesses by buying local cheese! (Your state may have a local cheese guild or cheese association that will help you figure out who those fine folks are.) It may be more expensive, but it helps strengthen your local food economy--and during COVID, we've all seen how the national and global food chain broke down so easily. Plus you might be able to go visit their farm or creamery, so that you will really know where your food is coming from! Many small creameries can't afford the exorbitant costs associated with becoming certified organic, so only buying organic instead of buying local may mean that you are missing out on cheesemakers who are doing things right but can't afford to stick a label on their cheeses to prove it. And at some point, all mass-produced cheeses are the same, even with the organic or grass-fed label slapped on them. (For what it's worth, corn is technically a grass, so grass-fed cheeses may be from cows who received a supplement of corn. That's common knowledge in the cheese industry.) And to be totally clear: sheep and goat's milks DO contain lactose. ANY cheese that is old enough to have grown a rind is going to be virtually free of lactose.

[@mrob997]

Thanks for the additional details!

[@kristfur]

I make my own kefir cheese. It has the consistency between sour cream and cream cheese. The probiotic benefit is amazing. For $6/half gallon, I can make better probiotics than in stores, and cheaper. I use Organic Valley Grassmilk (good stuff!). It's non-homogenized, which is good. Yes, it's Pasteurized, but it's not Ultra Pasteurized. It's the closest thing to Raw Milk I can find in the grocery store. If there's something better, let me know.

[@Kbmaas]

Wow I have raw goat milk... Would LOVE to know how to make that kefir cheese! Like... Where to get the grains, how long ferment, then strain in cloth... Etc..?

[@kristfur]

@@Kbmaas I'm jealous, they don't allow raw milk in my state. I got my grains on amazon ~$15. You definitely want live grains, not powdered. Strain the grains out with a nylon strainer to make kefir milk. Never let metal touch your kefir. Then strain with a cheese cloth to make yogurt/cheese. For that last step I use a combination of the strainer & cheese cloth, versus others will make a ball w/ the cheese cloth. At first I was fermenting every 24 hours. When grains are new they will need this process to grow. Eventually you can slow down. Now I only ferment 1/2 gallon once a week (6 days in the fridge + 24hrs on the shelf). This is probably THE best youtube instructional video. They also a link to the grains on amazon. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3K7coJ8j9-Iiqs

[@R_M.P]

Thanks for the video Bobby! Have been on a quest for the perfect, healthiest cheese. Any pasteurized dairy loses crucial nutrients and enzymes. Raw grass fed organic seems to be the best option, but very limited choices in the store. There seems to be a lot of labeling tricks on how you can claim "raw" dairy. According to USDA anything cooked below 161 degrees can be considered raw even though at that temp, it is sub-pasteurized. Hence companies like Organic Valley get away with calling their cheese "raw" when it really isn't. Was really disappointed to read about that. Best solution: Buy from trusted farmers, ask about their process, and/or make cheese yourself.

[@keshiawoods672]

Bobby i appreciate your channel it is so time consuming to read labels but to know what you put in your body is so important I thank you so much because you tell us not only whats in products and why.

I’m, watching this in 2024. Firstly- Bobby you are a true genuine hero. I don’t think I have ever seen organic cheese in the supermarkets where I live, Tasmania, Australia. Will definitely start looking for it.

[@thebluevelvetriver]

Thank you for listing these in the description box. It really helps while I'm listening to the video to have a list to reference at the same time.

[@mrsintriguing]

I was literally reaching for my laughing cow pepper jack cheese for a snack w my cucumbers 😏😭😩 man I love it.... I still ate it [too late to turn back] 😝.. but I will keep in mind🤢 great video!!!

[@hannahz6848]

borntobe kinky the pepper jack actually doesn’t have the natural flavor he mentioned in the video.

[@KCcode]

Bobby & Art, I would like a review of coffee. I am a coffee lover and drink 2 cups every day, like to know if the Kirkland Costco brand or the Dunkin Donuts coffee powder available in Costco is good to consume every day

[@lemons2lemonade884]

Kavitha Chandra I can tell ya right now he’s gonna say no! They’re one of the worst ones I’ve researched. Gotta find organic for sure😔

Would love to see a video on protein bars.

[@ohioladybug7390]

Gerry Hamilton ... We get the Elevation peanut butter chocolate ones at Aldi. They have 280 calories, 10 g fat, 20 g of protein, 29 g carbs, 2 g fiber and so on. They have great ingredients and are extremely filling. A local dietician told us about them. ALDI has since won an award on these. They have another one that looks just like them so check the front to make sure it says 20 G protein. I think the other is only 12. They make a great meal replacement.

Much appreciated your videos.I have a dairy,soy,gluten/ wheat & grain allergy.Your videos are so helpful.

[@linusmulherin6893]

Thanks for the help Bobby Parrish! I can't wait to get munchin' on my favourite cheeses!

[@p3ggz49]

i really appreciate these videos! As a beginner chef, I literally know nothing, so thank you so much!!

[@BobbyParrish]

you are most welcome!!!

[@2percent153]

I'm so glad you said Babybel, and string cheese. Unfortunately when it comes to those of low income the organic is way too high on some things, plus people go from what they know. Most organic products get passed by.

[@tamitatangoto5134]

Well to be honest 2%, it's worth it to get organic if you don't buy the other foods then you will have more money for organic products, they're more filling, they're more fulfilling. You will eat less and you will live longer. Find a grocery store like "Grocery Outlet" which has a huge organic aisle. And also organic products throughout the store. Including organic meats, organic chicken, organic dairy, organic eggs, organic bread, organic coffee and it's all approximately half the price of the regular stores. Sincerely Tammie 🙋🏼💞😇🎊💖🎉

[@RosaRosa-xe7ft]

Love everything I'm learning from your videos, share with my children so they give my grandkids the best.👍

[@robertotwell3152]

Aloha, Bobby! Thank you so much for making these videos. This is my second one. It’s so important to be proactive when it comes to the food we eat, and education is the first step. In your lunch meat video, as well as this one about cheese, you have really stressed the term ‘organic’. But just like what I’ve learned about marketing terms such as ‘organic’, consumers really need to dig deeper because these terms are minimally controlled by our government. For example, chicken product that is marketed as ‘free range’ only requires that chickens have the opportunity to step “outside” from their regular clustered-environment. As you mentioned about grass fed cheese, unless it states 100 percent grass fed, then the cows are only allowed to eat their naturally-designed food for a specific duration, which may equate to only one month or less. Therefore, I think it’s important for your viewers to be reminded of this fact, especially if you’ve touched on this subject in a previous video. Keep up the great work!

Some of the expensive aged cheddar that my pops gets in for his cheese shop down in Sonoma has that natural food coloring. Honestly, nothing beats aged cheddar cheese on sourdough bread, I tell ya whoat.

[@dorothymaciver1849]

I love you guys thanks for trying to keep us healthy !

[@MultiPinkPolkaDots]

Vegan video please!!! I am slowly starting a whole foods, plant based diet and it would be super helpful. Thanks, I love your videos!!

[@devonlawrence9831]

He speaks briefly about Violife. He's talked more about it in his lives. I buy them all at Whole Foods. They are a cheese game changer! Soo good.

[@ii-ok3jo]

You can make your own cheese ,yogurt,butter,sour cream from organic valley grass fed whole milk. Just search for recipe on KZbin. You also have to be aware of well known corps we grew up with that utilize HEK293 as a flavoring in their products. The problem with Walmart brand organic shredded cheese is that I has anti caking agent in it used to make it not stick together and also anti mold chemical or antibiotic ,a Mycin which some people are allergic too. Also if a Walmart product like their organic cheese say product is distributed by an American company it means the product is produced over seas like possibly China. All since Walmart was purchased by China in 2015. Walmart brand organic black beans has a man made sodium as an ingredient and it causes ulcerations of a consumers esophagus and stomach. Even their frozen veggies are made in China.

[@tamitatangoto5134]

Thanks for the heads up. That's really creepy that Walmart is owned by the Chinese in the first place. And that their foods are fake is disgusting. I will not shop at walmart. Another thing to think about the Chinese have bought up a lot of our farmland. And own meat companies in this country as well, they are obviously trying to take over our country.😲🤕 I am glad GOD'S KINGDOM WILL COME SOON. (ISAIAH 9: 6 7,; Matthew 6:10) AND none of THE WORRIES ABOUT THE CHINESE TAKING OVER OUR COUNTRY will end up happening and I'll be happy for the reality of that.

[@elizabethfinamore4824]

Was hoping to hear about the French cheeses!!

[@lesliec7774]

Thank you for these videos, very helpful. Would like to see one on “healthy” drink alternatives like BAI, Hint, Lipton Green tea, etc. I know water is the best but sometimes need a little flavor so was wondering what would be best. I do steer away from soda. Thank you!

[@randall8379]

I especially like Cheddar. I find that if it comes from Britain, Australia, New Zealand or Ireland it is real cheddar and not the industrial plastic like product made in the US (with the exception of a few boutique dairies) Old Croc is made in Australis, says grass fed, and is sold at Walmart at a good price.

[@FaithBrown-m5r]

Been watching your videos and am amazed at all the bad and good foods .thank you. ❤❤❤

[@xyzxyz2529]

But . Bobby. “Organic” How Can we really believe what it says on label is true. Like grass fed, extra virgin olive oil, on and on.

[@danr5239]

I can put anything in a box or packaging and say it’s organic that doesn’t make it true.

[@jebrown9789]

Thank you for discussing RAW milk cheese - it's so hard to find. Does Costco have one???

[@filo8582]

You are the absolute BEST - THANK YOU for all you do and for educating us on the food we eat. Please do a video on Trader Joe's food.

[@terriesmith8219]

I love Art!! He's too cute!! Lol

[@ccchhhrrriiisss100]

I know artisan cheesemakers. If you visit their home, you can see which cheese products they buy. They especially love Dubliner and Tillamook cheddars. I asked them about the grass versus grain dairy. They admit that there is a difference; but, they said that it is really negligible. They argued that the people who make an issue of this are those who are usually peddling "whole" and "organic" products at a premium price. They said, "Is that grass-fed organic cheese worth a price that is three times higher than Tillamook? No. Unless you're wealthy, you'll get arguably the same experience from Tillamook at a fraction of the cost. Besides, we really like the taste of Tillamook cheddars."

[@alipainting]

Favorite cheddars in order of yumminess. Coastal (English) from Costco, Murray's English cheddar, Old Crock - green label from Australia. Nothing else comes close. 😊

[@maryannsmithkang7224]

What is your opinion on the Sargento brand? Please advise. Thank you!

[@ParbleCrow]

Incredibly informative video. Thank you so much for making this.

[@melsongp9390]

Been binge watching loss of your videos to get caught up on what I've missed all these years. Glad to have found you about a month ago or so

[@mschatz63]

there was a time not too long ago when we never heard the words: organic, grain fed, gmo, and we survived. It is a big money game, organic cost so much more.

[@twist3d537]

organic is a scam

[@lauracestero4079]

You used the aged Sargento cheddar for you pizza a few weeks ago and raved how good it was. I went out and bought that to start using. Is that okay? Or no?

[@BobbyParrish]

I wish they had organic sargento...its really good flavor and melty..but ive tons lots of research lately...and I like to grate my own. I should have known that when we filmed that video 3 months ago..my bad!

[@lauracestero4079]

FlavCity with Bobby Parrish no worries. Just started buying and will stop. I trust you. :)

[@ohioladybug7390]

Our family thinks Sargento cheese has the least flavor and dry texture but that is just our opinion.

[@charlaorton5989]

You are Amazing Bobby!! Thank you soo much for sharing all this healthy options with us. Piece and Mad Love! ✌️💜🌹💜

[@GatheringBitByBit]

That Organic Valley cottage cheese contains chitin from locusts. Green Valley organic lactose free is the only cottage cheese really healthy and Whole Foods stopped stocking it where I live because people just grab anything that says organic without reading label contents because it’s cheaper.

[@karenwatson4031]

I've been buying Friendship cottage cheese because it's so simple in ingredients but it does have calcium dioxide and I don't know if it's grass fed. It's made in a small town in southern NY that has been in the cheese business for 150 years.

[@PhaseSkater]

most of the cows for tillamook are fed grass. they just dont go out of the way to spend the extra money to be usda organic certified.

[@jannetteberends8730]

I always buy a kilo old Gouda. Sometimes (Leidse) cumin cheese. But I’m Dutch.

[@mvb679]

I think i just watched every video on your page 😂 thank you SO much for this ! I’ve been thinking I’m eating healthy but i didn’t know i wasn’t . I suffer with so many stomach issues but I’m going to re switch my diet . Thank you !

[@duncanidaho6151]

Very interesting. I had no idea. I'll be looking closer at my cheese choices from now on.
