Why You Should Be Eating Grass-Fed Cheese 

Contrary to popular belief, cheese and dairy aren't the enemies of a healthy diet. In fact, quality cheeses offer a host of nutritional benefits - as long as you choose the right kinds.

The key is opting for grass-fed varieties. Grass-fed cows produce milk with higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants than grain-fed cows. Their milk also boasts more vitamins, minerals, and those disease-fighting compounds called phytonutrients.  

Plus, cows allowed to graze on open pastures lead happier, less stressful lives. This produces healthier animals and, in turn, healthier milk. No surprise - happier cows make tastier cheese!

When shopping for cheese, look for brands using milk from grass-fed cows, like Rumiano Cheese. Rumiano's farms raise their herds humanely on a diet of fresh grasses. This creates cheese with rich flavor and stellar nutrition. 

So for your next recipe, ditch the processed cheese slices. Get creative with nutritious, full-flavored cheeses - preferably grated fresh off a grass-fed block. Your taste buds will thank you!
