Sek Kashar Cheese - How Many Calories?

How many calories are in SEK kashar cheese?

The manufacturer's table for full-fat SEK kashar provides 331 kcal per 100 grams. A weighed 20-gram amount supplies 66 kcal; 30 grams supplies 99 kcal. Slice thickness varies, so use the weight you actually serve.

Is it mainly a protein or carbohydrate food?

A 30-gram amount contains 7.5 g protein, 7.5 g fat and 0.51 g carbohydrate. It adds protein to a sandwich, with fat contributing energy too. Using 50 grams raises protein to 12.5 g and energy to 166 kcal. Two sandwiches need not contain the same amount of cheese.

At breakfast, it can be served with tomatoes, cucumber or greens. The bread portion in a toasted sandwich and added butter are outside this cheese-only calculation. Weighing cheese before it melts is more useful than trying to judge the amount afterwards.

Is this the same as light or high-protein kashar?

No. The figures describe standard full-fat SEK kashar. Do not transfer them to a light, high-protein, aged or processed toast-cheese product. Compare the exact product name first, then energy, protein, fat and declared salt on an equal 100-gram basis. Package size alone does not describe nutrient concentration. Torku kashar has a separate label reference; its figures should not be replaced with SEK’s.

What else should you check on the package?

The manufacturer identifies this as cheese made from pasteurised cow's milk; it is unsuitable for milk allergy. Low carbohydrate does not establish that it is lactose-free. Salt, saturated fat, sugar and calcium are not given in this online table. If you track these nutrients, consult the package rather than treating a missing value as zero.

A long shelf life stated for a sealed pack does not apply after opening. Keep it chilled and follow the package's instructions for opened cheese.
