What it is

Wisconsin Cheddar Cheese is a type of firm, natural cheese made from cow's milk. It is produced in Wisconsin, a state known for its dairy industry. The cheese is made by curdling milk with rennet, then draining the whey and pressing the curds into blocks.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add Wisconsin Cheddar Cheese for its distinct sharp, tangy flavor and its melting properties. It is commonly found in cheese blends, processed meats like sausages, and as a topping for salads and vegetables.

Health notes

Wisconsin Cheddar Cheese is a natural food ingredient and is not subject to FDA additive regulations. It is a source of calcium and protein. Like all dairy products, it contains saturated fat and sodium. The WHO/IARC has not classified cheese. Evidence on the health effects of cheese consumption at typical intake levels is mixed, with some studies suggesting potential benefits and others linking high intake to certain health concerns.

Allergen info

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