Milk Cheddar Cheese is a popular, versatile cheese made primarily from cow's milk, salt, enzymes, and a starter culture. Originating from England, it has become a staple in cuisines worldwide, prized for its rich, creamy texture and sharp, tangy flavor that intensifies as it ages. Cheddar is an excellent source of protein and calcium, which support bone and muscle health. It also provides essential vitamins like B12 and minerals such as phosphorus. However, due to its saturated fat and sodium content, it should be consumed in moderation, particularly for individuals managing heart health or blood pressure. Whether melted over dishes, sliced for sandwiches, or enjoyed on its own, Cheddar is a timeless favorite that balances flavor with nourishment when integrated mindfully into a balanced diet.
