Cacique® Queso Quesadilla Shredded Cheese

Product Information

• Product Details

  

  Originally from the state of Sinaloa and surrounding parts of Northern Mexico, it’s said that this cheese’s rich, melting qualities and creamy flavor inspired the name of the beloved quesadillas enjoyed today. Our Queso Quesadilla cheese is similar in texture and flavor to Monterrey Jack cheese but with a milder taste — so it can be used as an everyday melting cheese. It’s also gluten-free and made with Grade "A" milk from cows not treated with rBST.
