Well,

1 oz of cheddar cheese has: 20% daily value of Calcium; 7 g Protein; 6% daily value of Vitamin A; and also 6g sat. fat, 9g fat, 113 total calories.

1 cup of nonfat milk w/out added Vitamin A has: 30% daily value of Calcium; 8g protein; 86 total calories.

Note the differing quantities: 1 oz cheese vs. 1 cup skim milk

The winner depends upon your definition of the phrase "nutrient dense." Nonfat milk has more calcium and protein and fewer calories, but cheddar cheese has more Vitamin A. However, you can get milk fortified w/ Vitamin A, so the choice really is yours. Be sure to consume 3 servings of dairy products daily for a well-balanced diet. Enjoy!
