Mascarpone
Mascarpone isn’t just a pretty pricey cheese, it’s also about 50 percent fat. That fat content is what makes it an excellent dessert cheese and thickening agent in savory dishes, but it’s also what makes this one deserving of the unhealthy reputation cheese can have. If you were to eat a single tablespoon of mascarpone, you’d be eating about 10 percent of your daily allowance of dietary cholesterol, too.
