Made with 100% natural ingredients, this Dutch cheese product boasts a mild taste, creamy texture, and 30 grams of protein per 100 grams and with minimal fat and no carbs. By lowering the fat content of traditional Dutch cheese (Cheez’Up High-Protein Cheese has just 15 grams of fat per 100 grams) Vepo Cheese naturally increased the protein content to appeal to health-conscious eaters and vegetarians.
