About KRAFT VELVEETA Pasteurized Process Cheese Spread
Processed cheese is made by grinding and melting one or more natural cheeses together with emulsifying salts, then reforming the blend into slices, blocks, or spreads that melt exceptionally smoothly and keep far longer than natural cheese. American cheese, cheese slices, and spreadable cheese products all belong to this family, engineered for a mild, consistent flavor and a creamy, even melt. It supplies calcium, protein, and fat, though it tends to be higher in sodium and additives than aged cheese.
Its signature reliable melt makes it the classic choice for cheeseburgers, grilled cheese sandwiches, nachos, and smooth cheese sauces and dips that never turn grainy or oily. Convenience and shelf stability are its main appeal. Keep processed cheese refrigerated and tightly wrapped once opened, and while it lasts longer than fresh cheese, use it within the timeframe on the package for the best texture and taste.
