Some cheese does and some doesn't.
Hard cheese generally doesn't have any carbs, but the softer the cheese is the more carbs it might have.
Curd cheese has a few carbs per serving, for example. Mozzarella sometimes has carbs. Cream/Cottage cheese both have carbs in them.
Although, they're allowed to say 0 carbs on the label if it has less than 1g per serving. However, unless you're eating 3+ servings a day I wouldn't bother worrying about the "hidden" ones.
Just go by the label. :D
Hard cheese generally has no significant carbs. Cottage cheese and cream cheese have some, but not enough to worry about. Processed cheese and cheese substitutes have lots.
weird i have a very soft cheese ...polly-o mozarella cheese.. and is 0g carbs

There's the full nutritional facts. It says <1g carbs, which actually means anywhere from 0.50-0.99g carbs, but if you're having a different kind of Polly-O that says 0g, they're legally allowed to say 0g for anything that's 0.0g to 0.49g (as mentioned above ^_^ )
nop not that one..i know about that one..they sell it @ the supermarkets..and it actually has 1g of carb.. i'm talking about one @ Sam's Club named polly-o fresh mozzarella cheese..

according to most of my reading you can have quite a bit of full fat cheese through out the day.
I try to get the more natural cheeses from Sargento personally.
If possible, look at the nutritional numbers for 100g of cheese. You'll get a better idea that way then for a "Serving" which might be tiny.
I usually use an organic mozzarella that also lists <1 gm/oz.
I have 2 oz/ day in eggs. I count it as 1 carb total.
I find mozz has the best ratio - cheddar is a bit fat heavy.
What are some other HARD cheeses w good macros (so I can just add the cheese fat to eggs)
Thanks
If it worries you, just buy hard cheese. And melt it abit until its soft :P
