Velveeta is a processed cheese invented in the early 1800s by scientist and gourmet Emil Frey. It is made from a mixture of whey protein concentrate and various ingredients that stabilize the milk and extend its shelf life. It was once considered a true cheese but is now recognized as a "processed cheese product".
