Maytag Blue Cheese

Maytag Blue Cheese

Everyday

Maytag Blue Cheese is an artisanal American blue cheese crafted from pasteurized cow's milk and aged in limestone caves to develop its signature character. This Iowa-origin cheese features a balanced profile of creamy texture and bold, piquant flavor, with blue-green veining from Penicillium roqueforti mold. While rich in protein and calcium, its pronounced salty tang and 50% fat content make portion control key for nutrition-conscious users. It shines crumbled over salads, blended into dressings, or paired with fruit and nuts.
