minus-squareEndlessNightmare@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·23日前What is it’s natural color? I know there is a white cheddar. Is that just undyed cheddar or is it a different variety?
minus-squareJillSteinsPuckeredAnus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·23日前Pale yellow. To make it orange cheddar they just add annatto for coloring.
minus-squareSweepTheLeg@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·22日前At least they use natural ingredients to make it yellow and not red #5.
