What to know about colby cheese
Colby is a mild, semi-hard American cheese that is aged only briefly, and that short ripening is exactly why it is a gentler pick than sharp matured cheeses. Its histamine and tyramine land a notch below aged cheeses like cheddar, gouda or provolone, so people who react to aged cheese sometimes tolerate a little colby better. It is not a free pass, though: because colby is young and moist it holds on to a lot of its milk sugar, so it is high in lactose and still a real source of dairy protein.
Watch for
- Moderately high in histamine and tyramine, a step below sharp aged cheeses because colby is only lightly aged, but still enough to bother sensitive people
- High in lactose: colby is a young, moist cheese, so it keeps much more milk sugar than hard aged cheeses do
- A genuine source of casein and whey, so it is not suitable on a dairy-free diet
