Reduced-Sodium Natural Processed Cheese

Reduced-Sodium Natural Processed Cheese is a processed cheese product commonly used for sandwiches, melts and snacking; it stems from the tradition of blending cheeses with emulsifiers to create a smooth, stable product. It provides a solid source of protein with about 18g of protein per 100g, and is often chosen for its meltability and long shelf life. While it delivers a high-quality amino acid profile and useful calcium content, it can be relatively high in saturated fat even when sodium is reduced, so many people use it in smaller amounts or choose lower-fat/low-sodium alternatives.
