Mild Cheddar Cheese
What You Should Know
You'd find 365 Mild Cheddar in the grocery dairy case or on a deli shelf, ready for sandwiches, snack boards, or melting over a weeknight dinner. It gives a familiar, comforting and slightly nostalgic vibe—practical for everyday meals but indulgent when warmed or paired with crackers. The short ingredient list (cultured pasteurized milk, salt, microbial enzymes, annatto) and conventional cheesemaking steps yield a creamy‑firm texture and point to a processed dairy product rather than an ultra‑processed formulation.
