About QUESO COTIJA MEXICAN STYLE GRATING CHEESE, QUESO COTIJA
FUD's Queso Cotija is an American-market version of the traditional Mexican crumbling cheese, though the ingredient list reveals it leans on palm oil and a range of stabilizers, emulsifiers, and preservatives that distinguish it significantly from artisanal cotija made purely from aged whole milk. It still delivers the salty, dry, crumbly texture suited for grating over tacos and beans, and the flavor is reasonably faithful to the style. Those seeking authenticity should look for an imported version, but for everyday cooking use it functions well enough.
