Tillamook Smoked Black Pepper Cheese Snack Portions -7.5oz/10ct

A: While we haven’t tested using Colby Jack Cheese Snack Portions to make homemade fried cheese sticks, they wouldn’t melt in the same way as mozzarella and would have a different texture and consistency when cooked. These snack portions are best enjoyed straight from the package. Next time, you could try our Whole Milk Mozzarella Snack Portions for a more traditional "mozzarella stick"!

A: Hello! The dairy farmers who supply milk for Tillamook cheese use a variety of forages and grains for feed. While the mixture varies from dairy to dairy, it's likely to include a mix of grass, alfalfa, some corn silage, and grains such as barley or soy. All of this is balanced by a nutritionist to ensure the health of the cows.
