Basically All types of cheese are similar to milk, but more sticky, more Kapha, harder to digest and better for a fast and strong digestion.
Soft cheese inhibits strongly the digestive power; therefor it is very suitable for stomach fire conditions or teenagers with a strong appetite. For the rest of humanity, best consumed in moderation, small portions at a time, a thin spread on toast accompanied by hyssop/oregano/basil or other similar condiments as customary in many cultures.
