What food group is cheese whiz?

Cheese Whiz is considered a processed cheese food. It's not technically cheese because it doesn't meet the requirements for being called cheese (mainly, it doesn't have enough real cheese in it).

While it is made with some cheese, it's primarily a blend of ingredients like:

* Cheddar cheese (a small amount)

* Vegetable oils

* Milk protein concentrate

* Whey

* Salt

* Stabilizers

* Emulsifiers

* Coloring

Because of its processed nature and added ingredients, it's not categorized as a dairy product like milk or cheese, but rather as a "processed cheese food" or "cheese spread".
