How do feel about Miyoko’s creamery cheese? The ingredients look ok, but how do you feel about using them in a plant based diet?
— Alice Jenkins
Answer:
You know, I, I think, uh, you know, KO's uh, creamery items are, are fine to use. And I, I think, uh, you know, the consumer, so starting with you, Alice, of course, we'll, we'll need to look at the ingredient list and see how comfortable you are with that, um, and how it fits into a plant-based diet. I think number one, it does, um, you know, clearly it is a, uh, a plant-based item. And, uh, and, uh, I think a pretty good one, uh, you know, in that category of plant-based cheeses, it's gonna be all up to you then to, uh, moderate that, uh, intake. You know, uh, you know, I would say that, you know, anything you're, you're enjoying, uh, is best to enjoy in moderation. Even the, the best things for uss, uh, are not so good if they're, uh, out of balance. So, you know, do keep that in mind. And, um, you know, pay attention to your body, you know, as you, uh, eat certain foods, including, you know, these plant-based cheeses, no matter what they're made of. And, um, notice how you feel as you're eating it. Uh, notice as you've, uh, how you feel as you're digesting it. Uh, notice how you feel as you're expelling that food from the other end. Um, you know, all of these phases of, um, uh, our, our body are consumption of, uh, of food is gonna be important. And, uh, in the end, you're gonna be the best judge as to whether that is a comfortable fit for you.
