liquid cheese

Common forms include ready-to-serve cheese sauces, pureed queso, spray or spreadable cheeses, squeezable bottle sauces, and Tetra Pak carton cheeses.

Pack sizes vary widely: single jars or cans are commonly around 8–16 ounces, with 15–15.5 oz options frequent; multi-packs (for example a 12‑pack totaling 180 ounces) are also offered.

All three appear: ready-to-eat sauces, prepared heat-and-serve options, and mixes or prepared items meant to be heated before serving.

Labels vary: many products note 'refrigerate after opening' and recommend using within about three days; some simply state 'keep refrigerated'; at least one spray/spreadable option indicates it does not require refrigeration.

Options typically range from mild to mildly spicy; some queso varieties include red bell peppers, jalapeno, or diced green chile for a mildly spicy flavor.
