What it is

Cheese made with skim milk is a dairy product produced from skimmed cow's milk. The fat content is reduced by removing most of the cream. It is then processed and aged to develop flavor and texture, similar to other types of cheese.

Why it's used

This ingredient is used to provide a cheesy flavor and texture in a variety of processed foods. It is often found in snack foods like crackers, biscuits, and lunch combinations where a savory, cheesy taste is desired.

Health notes

Cheese made with skim milk is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. It is a source of protein and calcium. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated dairy products, and typical consumption is not associated with adverse health effects. Evidence does not suggest a link between moderate cheese consumption and disease.

Allergen info

Cheese is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 major allergens identified by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
