Fast food restaurants that use REAL cheese, and some that DON’T

According to Mashed, there are several fast food restaurants that don’t use real cheese! If a processed cheese-like product is made up of less than 51% real cheese, it’s not actually considered cheese per the FDA. So, the restaurants not serving ‘real’ cheese, are in fact serving something made up of several other ingredients.

Here’s the fast-food places that DO use real cheese in most menu items:

Panera

Starbucks

Taco Bell

Chipotle

Wendy’s

Chick-fil-A

Jack in the Box

And here’s the ones that DO NOT use real cheese:

McDonald’s

Burger King

Sonic

Bojangles

Dairy Queen

Tim Hortons
