About Queijo cheddar

Cheddar cheese, originating from England, is a widely consumed cheese characterized by its firm texture and range of flavors from mild to sharp. Made primarily from cow's milk, Cheddar is rich in key nutrients such as calcium, protein, and vitamin D, which support bone health and muscle function. Its vibrant yellow-orange hue often comes from the addition of natural colorants like annatto. While Cheddar is a great source of essential nutrients, it is also high in saturated fats and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation to maintain heart health and manage blood pressure. Popular around the world, Cheddar is a versatile ingredient in a variety of dishes—from sandwiches and soups to baked recipes—adding depth and richness to global cuisines. For those watching their calorie intake, opting for reduced-fat Cheddar or smaller portions can be a balanced way to enjoy its bold flavor while maintaining nutritional goals.
