How is chesse yellow?

Question

how/

Answer 1

When making cheddar cheese, they add annatto (extracted from the achiote tree).

Answer 2

What do you use for food coloring in your cheddar cheese?

Annatto. It is obtained from the seedpods of a South American tree.

Answer 3

Cheese becomes yellow only if it's been dyed.

It's the same with butter, actually. Butter is not actually yellow; it is white, just like milk.

A healthier alternative to dying your cheese and butter (if you are making your own) would be to add a little bit of carrot juice to it. That way, there aren't any harmful dyes in your food, they have that added color for cosmetics sake, and they'll taste a little bit sweeter!

Answer 4

Bright yellow to orange...Added coloring

Creamy yellow is natural (like butter).
