Colby Jack is the least Frankensteinian of the melted cheese options. Curds of two cheeses pressed and aged together. Colby is the same microbe as cheddar (cheddar turns out to be a verb, not a flavor, and Colby skips the processing).

I go through a lot of bricks of Tillamook's Colby Jack.

Tillamook makes great cheese. They're also one of the only mass-produced ice creams I can find these days that doesn't have any gums or carageenan added to it

edit: they might have begun adding gums. I have to buy Jeni's or Van Leeuwen. Ought to just make my own with how little I eat anyway.

You could also check out Häagen-Dazs if it is available in your market.

Well thank you for the suggestion and I am pleasantly surprised. I had written that brand off for a long time knowing that it was a made-up word and made by Nestle... the ingredients appear very clean and quality though

Yeah they have but it’s still better than most
