Q: What is the source of Enzymes in these cheese balls?

submitted by CutiousMom - 5 years ago

  • A: None of the enzymes used in the manufacturing of the cheese ingredients used in our seasonings are derived from animal sources, rather, they are all microbially derived. Microbial enzymes are a cultured strain of bacteria that digest protein and are derived from the growth of pure cultures of certain molds. Microbial enzymes are the same as those often referred to as vegetable enzymes or vegetable rennet and are often termed microbial rennets. These enzymes are neither animal nor vegetable. They are commonly used for the production of certain types of cheese and contain no animal products.

    Like winning the Lottery

    I'm a regular customer of your Cheese Balls. Recently, while snacking on your cheese balls, I came across a clump of the cheese coating. It must have been the size of a golf ball! It was the best day ever. I slowly whittled it down by scraping a little bit at a time on the remaining balls in the barrel. Loved it. Wonderful discovery! You should sneak a cheese blob in every barrel. LOL!

    Exceptionally Good

    These are the best cheese balls ever!! Cheesy, crispy but airy and light. The only downfall is they are highly addictive, once you start eating them you'll never want to buy another brand. Delicious!!!!

    White Cheddar Please

    I bought a big barrel of white cheddar cheese balls (before Christmas) called "Snow Balls." They were absolutely delicious and didn't turn your fingers (or tongue) yellow. Please make them available all winter - not just Christmas!!!!

    These balls are not as good as curls IMO

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Maybe there's just not enough size to have them be as tender as curls are. They're just somewhat tougher in the middle thus not as appealing to me. Granted they are cheesy but missing that texture something like jax have. A bit disappointed 😔

    Nothing but chemicals

    These used to be good but I’ve watched the number of ingredients increase while the quality and taste decrease. I do now t recommend buying these, especially for children.

    Review not posted, that's curious, I just said I didn't like the new Texture

    Maybe it'll just take some time just like it will take time for them to go back to the original recipe.

    THE DOWNFALL OF THE UTZ CHEESE BALL

    First off let me say that We loved the UTZ cheddar cheese ball to the point that we purchased about 30 barrels a year.UTZ has recently changed the shape of the barrel, not a big deal.They have recently changed the shape of the cheese ball to a smaller size, which means they can get more in the barrel, no problem.They haven't Exactly changed the taste, but they have changed the texture of the cheese ball.Prior to the change in the manufacturing process each cheese ball would melt in your mouth, believe me I know I would have them without my teeth in.They don't melt in your mouth anymore, and something that they're doing has changed the taste.Remember new coke? I tried it once and switched to Pepsi until they went back to the original recipe.I anticipate my thirty barrel per year acquisition of original recipe UTZ cheddar cheese balls will diminish to zero Barrels, until they go back to the original recipe.Fortunately, my pets don't have discriminating taste buds, and the cheese balls won't go to waste, I hope.
