About Me
The cheese is a blend of cream, milk and fresh and aged cheeses, particularly emmenthaler, which are pasteurized to stop the ripening process. Versatile and portable because of its pasteurization process, Laughing Cow does not have to be refrigerated. The archetypal Laughing Cow cheese comes wrapped in the individual serving-sized foiled wedges, and they are packaged in a round, flat box. Consumers have to pull a little red thread around the box to open it, and the foil packaging also features an easy-opening red tab. In various worldwide markets, it is served as squares, rectangles, slices, bite-sized cubes and in spreadable tubs. Because it is a smooth, sweet, buttery cheese, it is favored by children and eaten usually in France as a part of a breakfast or snack.Laughing Cow is available in its original flavor, a light version with only 7% fat, and an ultra-light version with just 3% fat (not available in the USA). In addition, flavored versions of the cheese (such as ham, gruyère, garlic, paprika, mushroom, chèvre, bleu, hazelnut, pizza and onion) are also available in various markets worldwideThis profile was edited with The Laughing Cow Myspace Editor
