Characterization of Fatty Acid Profiles and Nutritional Quality Indices in Commercial Spreadable Processed Cheeses: Comparative Analysis and Health Implications

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Natural processed cheeses showed a more favorable nutritional profile, including higher unsaturated fatty acids and better functional performance. A balanced fatty acid composition was identified as a key factor influencing meltability, oil separation, and overall quality of processed cheeses.
