Velveeta is a brand of processed cheese product that was introduced in 1923 by the Monroe Cheese Company in the United States. The name 'Velveeta' was intended to connote a 'velvety smooth' product. In 1926, the Monroe Cheese Company ceased operations, and Velveeta was acquired by Kraft Foods in 1927. Over the years, Velveeta has expanded its product line to include various items such as cheesy bites, macaroni and cheese, and cheesy skillets. In the 1930s, Velveeta became the first cheese product to gain the American Medical Association's seal of approval. It was reformulated in 1953 as a 'cheese spread'; however, as of 2002, Velveeta is labeled in the United States as a 'pasteurized prepared cheese product'. Today, Velveeta is owned by the Kraft Heinz Company, a multinational food company headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, USA. Kraft Heinz is one of the largest food and beverage companies globally, offering a wide range of products across various categories. Velveeta is produced in multiple countries to meet global demand, ensuring its availability in various markets.
