What it is

Simply remove a slice from the package and place it onto your food. For hot dishes, the heat will soften and melt the cheese, creating a gooey texture. It can be layered onto bread for sandwiches before toasting or grilling. When making quesadillas, place slices between tortillas and cook until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden. They can also be added to baked dishes during the last few minutes of cooking to add a cheesy topping.

The 'white' designation refers to the absence of annatto, a coloring agent sometimes used in orange cheddar.
