What it is

Reduced Fat Low Moisture Mozzarella Cheese is a type of cheese made from cow's milk. It is processed to remove some of its fat and reduce its water content, which gives it a firmer texture. This cheese is typically made by coagulating milk, cutting and stretching the curds, and then aging it for a short period.

Why it's used

This cheese is widely used in many dishes for its mild flavor and excellent melting properties. It is a popular choice for pizzas, lasagna, and other baked pasta dishes. Manufacturers use it to provide a creamy texture and cheesy taste while offering a lower fat option.

Health notes

Reduced Fat Low Moisture Mozzarella Cheese is a food product regulated by the FDA. It is a good source of protein and calcium. Because it is reduced fat, it contains less saturated fat than full-fat mozzarella, which can help consumers align with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans' recommendation to keep saturated fat under 10% of daily calories. No specific health controversies are associated with this cheese itself.

Allergen info

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