Found an ingredient list<br /><br /> Ingredients: A dehydrated blend of cheese (granular and blue (milk, cheese cultures, salt, enzymes)), whey, partially hydrogenated soybean oil, whey protein concentrate, lactose, maltodextrin, salt, sodium phosphate, citric acid, lactic acid, yellow 5, yellow 6.**Contains: Milk and Soy Ingredients. **Repacked in a facility that also processes products containing: peanuts, tree nuts, soybeans, milk, egg, fish, crustaceans shellfish and wheat ingredients.<br /><br />I found this on Yoder's Amish market website. Didn't know the Amish were online, but thought I would list my findings in case any one was curious.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35368293.post-21418862082192049812009-06-24T20:57:05.250-04:002009-06-24T20:57:05.250-04:00Hi, it's me, the above "Friend".

Did a google search of "cheese vs cheese product" And right there, third result was Jenn's blog w/my quotes. I feel so special! <br /><br />Anyway, one more thought about the Amish making their own food.... If you think for a minute that they make/produce all those items they sell in their store (Schmuckers) ?? Like corn nuts, red hots, coconuts, etc. If I'm not mistaken even their amish egg noodles are packages elsewhere and simply sold at their store. Any thing that is packaged in a clear bag with a sticker on it with the words hand written what the item is, was most likely bought in bulk from somewhere, shipped to them and they package it into smaller bags to resell. I would be willing to bet that only a few items are actually MADE there, by hand, by the amish. Pretty much anything can be bought in bulk and sold in smaller portions. <br /><br />Not trying to be a cynic just realistic. I love buying their fresh fruits and veggies, beyond that, many things are cheaper elsewhere. <br /><br />And sorry. powdered cheese just can't be real cheese. I'd love to be proved wrong but I can't bring myself to beleive anything less.<br /><br />Jenn's Friend :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35368293.post-14025253805324022702008-11-26T12:04:00.000-05:002008-11-26T12:04:00.000-05:00I just found your blog and I always like going to ...I just found your blog and I always like going to the beginning and reading from there. My husband and I just watched a documentary on cheese on the History channel. Apparently processed cheese is made from real cheese, with emulzifiers added to separate the fats from the proteins. In the process they stir the cheese constantly. They add the emulzifiers so that the cheese will melt more consistantly because the fats are separated.<BR/><BR/>All cheese, even natural cheese starts out white but they add stuff to it to make it color (like blocks of cheddar cheese)<BR/><BR/>:)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35368293.post-41123982259611160122007-09-18T15:37:00.000-04:002007-09-18T15:37:00.000-04:00Jenn, I'm replying to your comment you left on my ...Jenn, I'm replying to your comment you left on my blog in case you don't check back there too. :o)<BR/><BR/>Jenn, I got the walls of Jericho idea from a book called The Encyclopedia of Bible Crafts for Preschoolers by Group Publishing. It was from the library, so you can put a hold on it and have it delivered to your local branch!Teacher Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02959973078214496935noreply@blogger.com
