About Chedder
Cheddar, a popular semi-hard cheese, originates from England and is named after the village of Cheddar in Somerset. Made from cow's milk, it undergoes a maturation process that develops its distinctive sharp flavor, which ranges from mild to extra sharp depending on aging. It is nutrient-dense, offering protein, calcium, and vitamins such as B12 and D, which contribute to bone health and muscle function. However, cheddar is also high in saturated fats and sodium, which can be unhealthy in large quantities if consumed frequently. Commonly used in dishes such as grilled sandwiches, casseroles, or as a topping, it is a staple in many cuisines worldwide. Moderation is key to enjoying cheddar as part of a balanced diet, benefiting from its rich nutrients while minimizing potential downsides.
