Pizza cheese
Pizza cheese encompasses several varieties and types of cheeses and dairy products that are designed and manufactured for use specifically on pizza, including processed and modified cheese such as mozzarella-like processed cheeses and Mozzarella variants. Pizza cheese can also refer to any type of cheese suitable for use on pizza. Estimates have placed 30% of all pizza cheese used in the United States is mozzarella cheese. The most popular cheeses used in the preparation of pizza are mozzarella, provolone, cheddar and Parmesan. Emmental, Romano and ricotta are often used as toppings, and processed pizza cheeses manufactured specifically for pizza are used often in mass production environments.
Processed pizza cheese is manufactured to produce preferable qualities in browning, melting, stretchiness and fat and moisture content. Many studies and experiments have analyzed the impact of vegetable oil, manufacturing and culture processes, denatured whey proteins and other changes to create ideal and economical pizza cheeses. In 1997 it was estimated that annual production of pizza cheese was 2 billion pounds in the United States and 200 million pounds in Europe, and in 2000 demand for pizza cheese in Europe was increasing by 8% per year.

The ''International Dictionary of Food and Cooking'' defines pizza cheese as "a soft spun-curd cheese similar to Mozzarella made from cow's milk..." that is "...used particularly for pizzas and contains somewhat less water than real Mozzarella..." Most pizza cheeses are at least 95 percent Mozzarella,〔("Firms unite to drive pizza cheese sales." ) (September 1, 2000). Dairy Industries International, 65(9), 7. 〕 with different moisture and fat densities.〔〔〔 Cheese for frozen pizzas may be ''comminuted'', in which the cheese is processed into minute granules or fragments. Many varieties such as low-moisture Mozzarella are formulated specifically for pizza.〔 〕〔 ISBN 0412535106〕 Others are processed into blocks, from which the product can be grated, made into granules or sliced for use on pizza and in the preparation of other foods. Pizza cheese frequently consists of a blend of two or more cheeses. Low-moisture Mozzarella and Provolone is the most common blend.〔
