Sorry to contradict you. This is an article about a rise in colon cancer and cardiovascular disease. Cheese consumption is not associated with either of those. Actually it seems to be protective for both issues:

A valid criticism, and I can't knock solid information. People should be mindful of the amount of calories they are getting from cheese, as being overweight definitely will exacerbate colon cancer & cardiovascular disease even if it would otherwise be neutral or benefitial. The hormonal effects can also be no bueno for prostate or breast cancer.
Of course, I have motives beyons health to advocate away regardless, but I'll be mindful of avoiding any non-factual talking points. Kudos.
I know, what's with BonfireOvCheese hating on our cheez parade?
Hail the curds!
