History of Cheese
Cheese was first made more than 4,000 years
ago by Asian people. Later cheese making
spread to Europe. Cheese is a diary producat
consisting of proteins and fat from milk, usually
the milk of cows, buffalo, goats, or sheep.
Cheese is full of calcium which is necessary for your bones. However,
cheese takes long time to digest. This is because cheese often has a lot
of fat. Nowadays, low-fat cheese is made and sold at supermarkets. No
matter where it comes from, you have to watch how much cheese you
can eat every day.

2. When was it made?
3. Why is cheese good or bad for you?

mean winter. The weather there gets very cold, but it
never snows.
