Cheez Whiz

Cheez Whiz is a thick, heavy cheese sauce and a trademarked product made by Kraft Foods. The bright, unnaturally orange viscous liquid usually comes in a glass jar, and is used as a topping for corn chips, hot dogs or other foods and is popular in the United States. The novelty of spraying cheese out of an aerosol has proven to be an effective marketing tool.

Cheez Whiz is one of a number of "processed cheese foods", a category including similar products like Velveeta and some types of individually-wrapped cheese slices. These products contain some elements of actual cheese, but derive their tangyness and strong flavor from added citric acid and flavoring compounds.

Products include:

• Cheez Whiz
• Cheez Whiz Light
• Salsa Con Queso
