white cheddar
Uncolored sharp cheese
White cheddar is cheddar cheese that hasn't been colored with annatto, the natural dye that gives most cheddar its orange hue.
The flavor is identical to orange cheddar of the same age—the difference is purely visual.
White cheddar appears in upscale presentations and snack foods marketed as more natural or sophisticated: white cheddar popcorn, aged white cheddar.
