About EL MEXICANO, QUESO CASERO WHOLE MILK FRESH CHEESE
El Mexicano Queso Casero is a fresh whole-milk Mexican-style cheese made from pasteurized Grade A milk, salt, and enzymes -- a minimal, clean-label formulation.

Queso casero, meaning homestyle cheese, is a fresh, mild, slightly crumbly white cheese similar to queso fresco in texture but typically made with whole milk for a richer fat content.
