Cheese

Cheese is a milk product that contains most of the nutrients of milk in concentrated form. There are two types of cheese: natural and processed.
Natural cheese is made from milk like the Cheddar and Swiss cheese. They differ in flavor and texture because of the kind of milk and seasoning used. The method of making cheese and the amount of curing time make a difference in its color and flavor.
Natural cheese may also be soft or hard. Examples of soft cheese are cottage and cream cheese. Cheddar cheese is an example of hard cheese.
Processed cheese is made from natural cheese but it is melted, pasteurized, and blended to make a smooth-textured cheese.
Cheese is sold in many forms by piece, in jars, and in pasteurized cans. The price of cheese depends on its kind and form. Cottage cheese is the cheapest kind.
Cheese should be stored in a refrigerator to preserve its nutrients and prevent spoilage.
