The Laughing Cow Cheese

Most people probably don’t know this: most of the mass-produced cheeses available in supermarkets have colour additives. Yes, the beautiful golden hue on cheddar cheese is from artificial colour! And ever since I had read about how nasty these artificial colours are, I go on the search for cheeses with no colours added. It is hard to find any among the numerous brands of individually wrapped cheese slices that come with affordable price tags.

So when I grabbed a packet of The Laughing Cow’s cheese pack and scanned through the ingredient list, I was expecting to see E102 or E110 in there. But surprise, surprise, they are not in there! I was really laughing in joy at that moment.

Maybe due to nostalgia of enjoying this brand of cheese cubes when I was young, I do find the taste to be of old school type: rich in the flavour of cheese with no frills. It is all about cheese ~

Country of Origin: Australia
Where to get: All major supermarkets

Note: Another trip to supermarket, and I found out that no colouring is added to Kraft cheese also. At least that looks like the case, based on my limited proficiency in chemical terms written in Chinese.
