In Parents , there are distinctive differences among cheeses flavors and textures. Mild cheese is aged two to three months and has delicate flavors with semisoft to firm textures.

There are some recommendations for consumers to select the proper cheese they want. According to American Demographics , the percentage of American adults who have a body weight at least 20 percent greater than desirable, so called obesity, increased from 24 percent in the 1960s to 35 percent in 1994. During that period, even though the consumption of beef went down, Americans have increased their consumption of salty snack foods, which usually contain cheese, and snacking has caused the consumption of sugary soft drinks to increase. Some cheeses also can be contaminated easily, especially in the case of soft ones. So the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warns that a pregnant woman should be aware that certain soft cheeses can become contaminated with bacteria called Listeria , and, if she is sick from Listeria , the baby she is carrying could also get sick or die.
