La Bonne Vache processed cheese

La Bonne Vache is a traditional French brand of processed cheese, historically produced in the Jura region of France, specifically in Lons-le-Saunier. The brand is closely associated with the early history of processed cheese in France and was originally a competitor to the famous 'La Vache Qui Rit' (The Laughing Cow).

Historically, the brand was part of Fromageries Grosjean Frères, a company founded in the same region as the Bel Group (owners of The Laughing Cow). Over the decades, through the consolidation of the French dairy industry, the brand came under the ownership of Lactalis, one of the world's largest dairy corporations. Today, La Bonne Vache remains a staple in the foodservice and export sectors, known for its iconic cow mascot that shares a stylistic lineage with the classic French dairy illustrations of the early 20th century.

While the brand is French in origin and primarily manufactured in France to serve European and export markets, it is now globally distributed as part of the extensive Lactalis portfolio. Its 24-portion round box is a classic packaging format for spreadable processed cheese triangles.
