What it is

Cheddar cheese is a firm, natural cheese originating from England. It is made from cow's milk, typically using a process that separates the milk solids (curds) from the liquid (whey), then cultures and salts the curds before pressing them into blocks.

Why it's used

Cheddar cheese is used as a primary ingredient or flavoring in a wide variety of foods. Its savory, sometimes sharp taste makes it popular in sandwiches, quesadillas, enchiladas, and as a topping for baked goods and frozen entrees.

Health notes

Cheddar cheese is a source of protein, calcium, and vitamin B12. It is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for consumption. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated cheese and dairy products, considering factors like fat and sodium content in broader dietary contexts.

Allergen info

Cheddar cheese is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
