What You Should Know

Tillamook Farmstyle Pepper Jack Cheese Slices are a familiar sight in the refrigerated cheese aisle, shelved with other sliced and block cheeses near deli meats, burger toppings and sandwich fixings. Packaged as a nine-count stack of thick-cut slices in an 8 oz resealable package, the product markets itself as a hearty, melt-friendly Monterey Jack base studded with jalapeño pieces for a mild bite. Shoppers reach for it on weekly grocery trips focused on sandwiches, burger nights, quick lunch prep, tailgate or game-day shopping, and easy weeknight dinners—any occasion needing fast, flavorful melting cheese. Brand positioning leans on Tillamook’s heritage creamery story: West Coast, family-farm associations, “quality milk” language and a certified B Corp badge that appeals to values-driven consumers; the rBST-free claim and short ingredient list convey a “natural” halo without organic certification. The label has no child-oriented branding—its visual tone is straightforward and craft-focused rather than novelty. In processing context, this is a pasteurized, cultured cheese product that has been cut, sliced thick and packaged for convenience—manufactured but not formulated with artificial fillers or emulsifiers. Sensory notes: each slice is creamy and springy with visible flecks of jalapeño, a smooth melt on burgers or grilled cheese and a slightly tangy milky background; texture is thick-sliced and hearty rather than thin. Rituals around use include stacking on burgers, quick microwave melts for nachos, or arranging on snack plates. Nutrition cues—about 100 calories and roughly 190 mg sodium per slice—remind shoppers it’s a flavorful but calorie- and sodium-containing choice.
