Organic, ooey-gooey, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious—meet the first-ever nationally available Organic American Cheese Blocks!
Organic Valley, America’s largest organic farmer-owned cooperative, just changed the cheese game with its latest launch: Organic American Cheese Blocks! Available in Original and Fiesta flavors, these 11-ounce blocks bring classic American cheese taste without the mystery ingredients. Think creamy, melty, and made with real, recognizable organic ingredients.
Until now, American cheese in block form wasn’t available in a widely distributed organic option. Organic Valley just fixed that, and cheese lovers everywhere are rejoicing!
Slice, shred, melt!
Organic Valley’s new cheese blocks are here to elevate your snacking, melting, and cooking game. Whether you want to slice it up for sandwiches, shred it over nachos, or cube it for charcuterie, these blocks are up for the challenge.
Meet the MVPs:
- Original American Cheese Block: That nostalgic, mild cheddar-like flavor perfect for grilled cheese, mac & cheese, and melty burger magic.
- Fiesta American Cheese Block: A zesty, spicy twist featuring organic jalapeño peppers, habanero powder, and Mexican-inspired spices—a perfect queso upgrade!
And of course, both options are made with organic milk from pasture-raised cows and contain no antibiotics, synthetic hormones, toxic pesticides, or GMOs.
Cheese dreams come true
Organic Valley isn’t just any dairy brand—it’s a cooperative owned by over 1,600 organic family farms. They’ve been shaking up the organic dairy world since 1988, ensuring their cows roam freely and their milk is as clean as it gets.
“American cheese has been a staple in households for years, but finding a widely available, organic option in a block format just wasn’t possible—until now.” Laurie Drake, VP of Marketing at Organic Valley, sums it up.
Cheese lovers, this one’s for you!
Mark your calendars! Starting March 2025, these cheese blocks will hit Whole Foods nationwide, with more stores rolling out in the months to come. The suggested price? $9.99 per block. Not bad for a premium organic cheese experience!
If you love experimenting with new ingredients in the kitchen, this cheese is a game-changer. Whether you’re crafting a gourmet grilled cheese, a loaded nacho platter, or a creamy cheese sauce, the possibilities are endless. Home cooks and professional chefs alike will appreciate the versatility of these blocks, making it easier than ever to create delicious, organic meals.
Organic, cheesy, delicious – It’s here!
Let’s break it down:
- It’s a cleaner, healthier option: No artificial junk—just seven simple ingredients, including organic milk and butter.
- More cheese, more choices: Unlike pre-sliced versions, this block lets you slice, shred, or cube your cheese however you like.
- The organic dairy boom is real: Consumers are choosing organic dairy more than ever, with demand for clean-label cheese products skyrocketing.
- Perfect for meal prep and entertaining: From sandwiches to dips, these blocks add a gourmet touch to any dish.
The bigger picture
The organic cheese market is sizzling like a skillet of grilled cheese. More consumers are ditching artificial additives and seeking organic, high-quality dairy. With climate-conscious eating on the rise, products like these offer a sustainable and ethical alternative to conventional dairy.
According to market research, organic cheese sales are expected to grow significantly over the next few years. Brands like Organic Valley are at the forefront, making high-quality, better-for-you dairy more accessible.
Organic Valley’s product pipeline has continued to expand well beyond cheese. In March 2026, the cooperative launched Organic Valley Protein Plus Ultra-Filtered Milk, a new line of pasture-raised, ultra-filtered organic milk delivering 13 grams of protein and 6 grams of sugar per serving — 50% more protein and 50% less sugar than regular milk. Available in whole, 2%, and skim at $5.99 to $6.99, it marks the first nationally available organic ultra-filtered milk in the U.S. and signals that Organic Valley is actively building out a multi-category premium dairy presence, from functional milk to specialty cheese.
Final bite: Let’s get cheesy
Organic Valley just raised the (cheese) bar with their new Organic American Cheese Blocks. Whether you’re a mac & cheese maestro, a grilled cheese aficionado, or just someone who appreciates high-quality, responsibly sourced dairy, this is a product worth melting over.
