About 2% MILK CHEESE
Velveeta's 2% Milk Cheese product is not cheese in the conventional sense. Milk, whey, and milk protein concentrate form the base, while sodium phosphate and sodium alginate give it that ultra-smooth, melt-everywhere texture. Dried corn syrup, maltodextrin, and a handful of colorants round out the list. Protein is solid and fat is lower than full-fat processed cheese, but the ingredient complexity is worth knowing about. It melts beautifully for mac and cheese or queso dips, which is what most people buy it for.
