High-fat dairy products can relax the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), the muscle that separates the esophagus from the stomach. This can allow stomach acid to flow back into the esophagus, leading to heartburn.

Description

Firm, moderately sharp cheddar with a clean, milky tang and smooth, slightly creamy mouthfeel. Slices hold shape for sandwiches, crisp crackers, and cheese plates yet melt evenly for grilled sandwiches and casseroles. Reviewers commonly note consistent flavor, convenient slicing, and good balance between sharpness and creaminess for everyday home use.
