Gelatin?

Article cites gelatin under dietary restrictions, but a quick look from Kraft site shows

VELVEETA - CHEESE - REGULAR Ingredients: MILK, WATER, MILKFAT, WHEY, WHEY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE, SODIUM PHOSPHATE, MILK PROTEIN CONCENTRATE, ALGINATE, SODIUM CITRATE, APOCAROTENAL (COLOR), ANNATTO (COLOR), ENZYMES, CHEESE CULTURE.

i.e. no gelatin. Is gelatin listed in non-US Velveeta? Because otherwise this should be removed.

The main idea of Velveeta cheese is the whey is reincorporated with the curd. DonPMitchell (talk) 23:43, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

Is velveeta really a food or a form of edible plastic? Usually when I leave cheese out of the fridge, after a couple of days it ages and molds. I left this out for a science project a good month and a half and not a thing happened to it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.78.110.204 (talk) 08:14, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

That's probably due to the heroic salt content and overall low moisture despite the smooth texture (achieved by fat).

The mineral salts absorb the water so there is none availbale for the mould to grow on. The principal sales advantage of Kraft processed cheese outside USA (particularly in third world countries) is that is does not require refrigeration before opening.

Say, what percentage IS cheese in velveeta? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.21.221 (talk) 03:21, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Did Kraft change Velveeta?

It doesn't seem to melt like it used to. Was the recipe for Velveeta changed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.100.52.87 (talk) 21:50, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

Info Box is Silly

"Source of milk: cow" ?!?

Cute, but not quite encyclopedia-grade work there, ya?

== oh wait now that i've looked at a bunch of cheese articles, i see the info box on most of them and "source of milk : cows" is to differentiate from goat's milk cheeses. i thought it was a joke at first. sorry. ---though the issue of whether velveeta even ~is~ an actual "cheese" remains debatable.
