What it is
Organic cheddar cheese is a firm, natural cheese made from organic cow's milk. It is produced by culturing milk, adding rennet to coagulate it, and then draining the whey. The cheese is then pressed into blocks, aged, and often colored with annatto.
Why it's used
Cheddar cheese is primarily used as a flavor ingredient and a source of fat and protein. It is popular in snack foods like chips, pretzels, and crackers, as well as in prepared meals such as pasta dinners and biscuits.
Health notes
Cheddar cheese is recognized as safe by the FDA. It is a source of calcium and protein. While generally considered safe, like all dairy products, it contains lactose and saturated fat. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated cheese, and it is not subject to specific regulatory limits for general consumption.
Allergen info
Cheddar cheese is derived from milk, which is one of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
