Cheese wedges are small, individually-portioned slices of creamy cheese, often crafted from soft cheeses like cheddar or spreadable varieties. Originating in European culinary traditions, particularly French and British cuisines, cheese wedges are commonly used as convenient snacks or additions to meals. They typically contain milk, salt, cultures, and rennet, with fortified options providing essential nutrients like calcium and protein. These nutrients support bone health and muscle repair, making them a popular choice for energy sustenance. However, cheese wedges can also be high in saturated fats and sodium, which should be moderated in diets focused on heart health or weight management. Many brands offer low-fat or reduced-sodium options to cater to diverse dietary needs. Whether paired with crackers, added to salads, or enjoyed alone, cheese wedges offer a creamy, satisfying texture ideal for quick snacking or meal preparation.
