Description

Kraft 2% American Cheese in individual slices is a type of processed cheese, soft and creamy, ideal for melting and using in various cooking recipes, especially in sandwiches, hamburgers, and au gratins. This cheese is known for its uniform texture and its slightly salty and milky flavor, which adds creaminess without being too intense.

American cheese originated in the United States, where it was developed as a practical and versatile alternative to traditional cheese, especially suited for quick and easy culinary applications. The Kraft 2% version stands out for having a reduced fat content (2%), making it a lighter option without sacrificing flavor or melting capacity.

Properties: This cheese has a high content of calcium and protein, essential for a balanced diet. Its low fat content (2%) makes it a healthier option among processed cheeses. Furthermore, its presentation in individual slices facilitates its use, portion control, and preservation.

In different Hispanic American countries, American cheese may also be known as queso americano en lonchas, queso americano en rebanadas, or simply queso americano Kraft. In some places, it is generically identified as queso procesado or queso tipo americano.
