What to know about colby jack
Colby jack is the marbled orange-and-white cheese that blends mild colby with monterey jack. Both are young, lightly aged cheeses, so like colby it sits at the milder end for histamine and tyramine, well below sharp aged cheeses. The blend does behave a little differently from plain colby, though: it is only moderate in lactose but high in dairy protein, so with colby jack the casein and whey are the main concern rather than the milk sugar. If aged cheddar gives you headaches, colby jack is a gentler swap, but it is still very much a milk cheese.
Watch for
- Moderate in histamine and tyramine, milder than aged cheeses because both cheeses in the blend are young, though it can also act as a histamine liberator
- High in dairy protein: the monterey jack in the marble makes casein and whey the main dairy issue here, more than lactose
- Only moderate in lactose, so it may sit easier than young colby for people whose real problem is milk sugar rather than dairy protein
