Simple answer is yes. The jacket potatoe is starchy complex carbohydrate and in itself contains no/trace fat. However, cheese is a dairy product and unless you've gone for a low fat option it will contain comparitively the same amount of fat as the same weight of full-fat milk.

Nevertheless, if you eat full-fat cheese in moderation - meaning not too much in a sitting and consumed once or twice per week - the fat content will be pretty much negligible. Besides...cheese and milk are both excellent sources of calcium as well as a healthy source of protein and many essential vitamins and minerals and the lower fat options will lose many of these good nutrients during processing.

My advice, if you enjoy cheese, is to add some salad stuff to the meal and reduce the amount of cheese on your JP. You can also add a drizzle of olive oil over the salad too. This is a good heart protective fat and help with the removal of the saturated fat from the cheese.
