Lighter mozzarella developed by USDA researchers
Scientists from USDA ARS have created a mozzarella with 12 to 14 percent less fat than regular mozzarella and about 3 to 5 percentage points above existing low fat varieties. The extra-low fat cheese aims to improve taste while reducing total fat, with potential use in the National School Lunch Program and to meet dairy needs for children.
