What it is
These are hard, aged cheeses made from cow's milk. They are produced by draining off whey and aging the curd, which develops their firm texture and sharp, nutty flavors. The specific type of cheese (cheddar, parmesan, mozzarella) depends on the milk used, aging process, and added cultures.
Why it's used
These cheeses are added for their rich flavor and texture. They melt well and are commonly found in frozen breakfast items, baked goods like biscuits, and prepared meat dishes. Their savory taste enhances a wide variety of savory packaged foods.
Health notes
Cheeses are a source of calcium and protein. Like all dairy products, they contain lactose and saturated fat. The FDA considers these cheeses to be generally recognized as safe (GRAS) when used as food ingredients. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated cheese and dairy products.
Allergen info
Cheese is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
