Feta vs mozzarella
A 50 g portion of feta has about 130 kcal, a whole ball of mozzarella about 313. Feta is lower per serving, but only because you eat less of it.


The difference
183 kcal
Both are fresh, soft cheeses with a fair bit of fat. Feta is salty and crumbly, so a little goes a long way; mozzarella is mild and you tend to eat the whole ball in a caprese.
Weigh the same amount and they are level: 50 g of mozzarella is about 125 kcal, against 130 for feta. The ball just has more than twice as much cheese in it.
On a salad, half a ball of mozzarella is about 157 kcal. In Caltype just type "greek salad with feta".
