What it is

Organic white cheddar cheese is a dairy product made from organic cow's milk. It is produced by curdling milk with cultures and enzymes, pressing the curds, and then aging the cheese. Unlike orange cheddar, white cheddar does not contain added coloring.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use organic white cheddar cheese to add flavor, creamy texture, and a dairy component to various food products. It is commonly found in dishes like macaroni and cheese, frozen entrees, breakfast sandwiches, and savory snacks.

Health notes

As a food ingredient, organic white cheddar cheese is regulated by the FDA. It is a source of protein and calcium. However, like many cheeses, it can contribute to the intake of saturated fat and sodium. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans suggest limiting saturated fat to less than 10% of daily calories, and the FDA Daily Value for sodium is 2,300 mg. JECFA and EFSA typically evaluate food additives, not whole food ingredients like cheese.

Allergen info

This ingredient is derived from milk, which is one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA.
