20 Best Cheese For Empanadas (2022 Updated)

This greatness is unbelievably delicious! When you bite the first one for the first time you will be flooded flavor and conflicted with thoughts. 1st thought – Am I eating a perfect cheddar cheese toast? 2nd thought – I hope nobody can see me cause I’m not sharing this! 3rd thought – Where’s my credit card? I gotta have more.

It taste so good and smooth you just wanna put this cheese with some meat and make a sandwich. The flavor is what it would be like to just sink your teeth into a block of cheddar cheese while no one is looking.

I could right more but I gotta order more of this goodness and “You Cheddar Believe It”.

I got the garlic parmesan. Definitely a tangy flavour but I wouldn’t say it tastes just like garlic bread as another review said. It’s more on the parmesan side than garlic side, so if you like parmesan cheese you will probabaly like this flavour.

I’m not the biggest fan, and probabaly wouldn’t but it again because it is on the premium side, but it’s a nice one to try out. Between this and the cheddar, I preferred the cheddar. If you like tangy, give this one a go.

I would also say to mindful that if you are trying to lose weight, you don’t get a whole lot of pops for few calories as it is calorically dense. For me the serving size looked sad. In that regard, I’d say maybe go for quest if you’re craving crunch.

I’m big sad right now. I saw this when I was at RiteAid and got so excited by everything about these. The name, the packaging, and the idea of healthier cheese snacks soon to be devoured had me opening up the package so excitedly.

As soon as I popped one in my mouth, however, my happiness deflated like a leftover balloon at a 2 year olds birthday party. 🙃 I love cheese. I’m a born and raised cheese eater, lover, etc. These have almost no taste, and the taste they do have is like a weird whisper of an aftertaste of cheese.

It’s like the ghost of this Gouda floated by, farted, and I got the smallest whiff of it before it floated away forever. 👻🧀 The texture is also just… weird. It’s a hard pass on this for me, sadly.

Much preferred over Kraft. I had Kraft parmesan cheese leftover and did a side-by-side testing of both. I was pleased with the Mama brand over Kraft. Kraft’s was too refined (highly grated), whereas Mama’s was not, and the taste of Mama’s was better.

I hope Mama’s brand remains available because if it is, I don’t intend on buying Kraft again.

The product was very good quality. Previously I always purchased Kraft brand. That product was not available in store or online. This item is just as good as the Kraft brand. The packaging was strange.

The plastic container was just a little over half full when purchased.

High quality! Parmesan cheese is a staple in our house, and the Kraft brand was out of stock. Luckily I tried this brand and it was amazing! It tastes just like the parmesan cheese we get at the local Italian restaurant.

Very pleased!.

This cheese is a sturdy hard cheese comparable to any imported Parm! You can slice it thin with a veggie peeler for salads, grate a pile on your sandwich, then throw the tiny rind in your pot of soup! Excellent – nutty- Wisconsin!!!.

I always enjoy all the cheese products I have had along with my side kick Bandit My review is for the extraordinary BLUEBERRY JALAPEÑO JAM. I would love to order some jars of it w/o the cheese. I have ordered enough cheese to last me a long time.

For me it just has a subtle hint of heat. Oh yes, Bandit likes it too.

We have loved all the products. We tried the 8 year aged, but weren’t fans of it. I sent it to a friend in northern Georgia and they love it! So I’m sure they will be ordering some more and others no doubt.

I would like to buy a gallon of the Cherry jam!!!! hehehehehe. Ok, maybe not a gallon, but that little jar doesn’t last long in this house!.

I bought this cheese today in hopes of making a delicious homemade pizza meal. I’m sensitive to dairy so chose Violife in hopes of trying something a little healthier and easier on my digestive system.

I made dough from scratch, picked vegetables from the garden, and baked my pizza with love. When I took the pizza out from the oven, I was confused. First, the color. Instead of an appetizing cream or toasted white – I saw an orange/yellow goo.

Second, the texture. Instead of stringy firm deliciousness – wet, soggy pus. And third, the flavor. It’s hard to find even words in the English language to describe the taste. I’d almost say its worth buying a bag just to experience it.

But then again do yourself a favor – stay as far away from Violife Mozzarella Shred as possible. I love new product innovation and supporting small, health-conscious food brands – but I hate forking over hard-earned cash for a pretty package and empty promises.

I have bought a couple bags of this cheddar and loved it. It taste pretty close to cheddar and had a pretty good texture. I recently just bought two more bag of it and when I opened the first bag and took a couple pieces out to eat It was not what I was expecting and it was gross!! I smelled it and it smells even worse.

I finally figured out what it taste and smells like, it’s Bleu cheese. A really really pungent awful Bleu cheese. I absolutely hate Bleu cheese, so you can imagine my surprise when I opened a bag of cheddar that taste like Bleu cheese.

I don’t know what happened, the second bag I bought taste fine and is what I expected. I’d love to get my money back for the first bag though. And I’d also like to know what happened and why a Batch of cheddar got packaged and sold tasting like rancid Bleu cheese.

I normally would recommend this brand, but there should be consistency, and maybe better quality control.

It does the job for those of us that still like to make pizza. It melts fine, it just doesn’t meld into one mass like normal cheese, you can still see the individual pieces usually. the texture is not stringy like cheese because of this.

The flavor is subtle. I make my own cheeses usually using cashews but if I want to make pizza on a whim this cheese definitely helps. It’s great to see it at BJ’s and I hope they offer more like it. So far it’s been on sale for $5 multiple times which is equivalent to BOGO anywhere else for the quantity.

My tip : make your own dough, make your own sauce (while dough is rising and oven preheating), then put a very healthy topping of the sauce on followed by a meager layer of cheese and toppings. That results in the best pizza.

Too much of the cheese sort of diminishes it. Be careful though because this can make it messy/difficult to get off of the pizza peel should you use one.

Only tried once and found it to be dry so put the jar in the freezer and that seemed to help the dryness. I just bought the boxed Red Lentil Pasta and Chick Pea Pasta which are only made with one item so looking forward to trying the new jar of Parm I just bought to sprinkle over the Pasta while it is hot and see how it makes those Pastas taste.

dont know how this has so many good reviews, was not expecting it to just taste like velveta because it said mexican cheese. velveta does not go on a taco, or anything mexican. absolutely shocking and disgusting when i took a bite of my quesodilla thinking its like normal mexican cheese.

will not ever try to budget the mexican cheese again. horrid.

absolutely the best cheese to get. taste very good. melts very good also. for people saying theres nothing mexican about it, that does not matter because all the other “Mexican” cheese are not Mexican, trust me im Mexican.

also if you are calorie counting this absolutely the best calorie to grams to protein ratio that is out there! and it taste good.

I dont know why they show Mexican style unless they consider shredding it to be Mexican. This is plain velveeta, no spices or anything else to make it Mexican style. Will not buy again.

Pretty good taste and I’m usually picky when it comes to cheese. Will definitely buy again

I love using Sargento Parmesan cheese. It has the perfect flavor for a variety of recipes my two favorite being fettuccine Alfredo and homemade garlic bread. I recommend this cheese for many different foods including just sprinkling it on my salad.

It enhances any food while giving its own unique flavor.

I like this cheese because it feels light and it taste soft and it melts easily on anything. I feel it’s not to bloating. And maybe the price can be lower but it’s still good quality cheese. Would buy again I just bought the string cheese version.

It’s soft.

This Sargento Artisan Blends Shredded Parmesan Cheese is the best for my homemade lasagna! It has great flavor and the more cheese the better. It’s worth it for my once in a while lasagna. Nice blend with crisp cheesy flavor.

I’ll catch it on sale or have a coupon.

As a Brazilian, I’m honestly going to say. if you want to try a frozen pao de queijo (brazilian cheese bread), this is the one and only. THE ONE AND ONLY. Do not try any other brand. This is the closest you will find (if you live in the U.

S) to the original cheese bread. They usually carry this Brand at Kroger for about $5 a bag (I believe it comes with 12), more than enough for the whole family. Ready and 5 min. In Brazil, cheese breads are usually eaten during breakfast, while drinking coffee.

We do not dip our pao de queijo in anything! Don’t do that. :).

I received a free sample of Brazilian cheese rolls by forno de minas from social nature in exchange for my honest review and they were so delicious. They were flaky on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside.

The entire family loved them. They are good to use as either an appetizer or a side. I will definitely buy in the future.

These are great. Really nice right out of the oven. Who doesn’t like a little cheesy roll?! Not really like the authentic Brazilian bread but that’s ok as they’re so good. And the connivence of 5 mins in the oven is as good as it gets for busy folk on the go! Great as a snack with a coffee or soda.

I could eat the whole bag! They are pricey for what they are.

Of all the shredded cheeses this brand is my favorite. I love how thin the shred is; others are much thicker pieces. It’s great for melting on things like pizza and baked ziti. I also like that it’s organic.

Very good quality of every product from this company that I have encountered. Not only does it go well for Italian dishes, it works great for all types of recipes and dishes. I very much appreciate that the company only uses grass-fed and non-antibiotic given cows.

Let’s get real with this review, Tillamook Shreds used to be my favorite go to cheese product. I grew up eating this product. I used it for years. It was amazing then a few years ago Tillamook re-branded and changed the recipe to keep it from clumping in the bag.

The cheese is the same, but they started adding potato starch, and it’s so obvious. This completely changed the overall flavor for me and it went from being a staple (3 bags a week) to non existent in my fridge.

I’m giving it two stars because I will use it in a pinch. But it’s just not as nice. I wish Tillamook would make an option for those who don’t want potato starch in their cheese shreds. What’s worse is I have yet to find a replacement /:

I have always loved Tillamook for various types of Cheddar cheese and this variation is no different. I think the Sharp White Cheddar is a great snacking cheese and I particularly appreciate the individually wrapped slices during this time of Covid.

It’s a wonderful product and I will purchase again. For those wondering about flavor – these a slight bit of tang in the first bite that’s taken over by a sense of creaminess and a yummy almost nutty flavor that sounds out to a really nice medium cheddar after the top note.

It’s beautiful.

I love using this brand of cheese but this particular kind of cheese is my favorite I like to make flautas which are little tacos with chicken in them and some melted cheese on top yummy..

This chees is amazing is my favorite when it comes to melting cheese i get this cheese specially for my quesadillas they taste amazing
