What it is

Mild white cheddar cheese is a type of firm, natural cheese made from cow's milk. It undergoes a process called "cheddaring," where curds are stacked and turned to remove whey, resulting in its characteristic texture. The "white" indicates it has not had annatto added for color, and "mild" refers to its shorter aging period, giving it a less sharp flavor.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add mild white cheddar cheese to products primarily for its distinct flavor, creamy texture, and melting properties. It is a common ingredient in prepared meals like pasta dishes, sandwiches, and wraps, where it contributes to the overall taste and mouthfeel. It also serves as a source of dairy in these products.

Health notes

Cheese, including mild white cheddar, is regulated by the FDA as a food product. It is a source of protein, calcium, and fat. While dairy products can be part of a healthy diet, they also contain saturated fat and sodium. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans (2025-2030) advise limiting saturated fat intake to less than 10% of daily calories. The FDA Daily Value for sodium is 2,300 mg.

Allergen info

Mild white cheddar cheese is derived from milk, which is one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA.
