==Introduction==
[[Image:Cheese analog.jpg|thumb|right|Fig.1. Cheese Analogue|350px]]

Cheese is widely used as one of the preferential ingredient in fast foods and readymade conventional meals. However, high costs associated with natural cheese production and storage has prompted industry to search for alternatives. Attempts to reduce cheese cost have led to the development of cheese substitute called cheese analogues [[Media:(Mounsey & Oriordan, 2001).pdf|(Mounsey & Oriordan, 2001)]]. Cheese analogues are usually defined as products made by blending individual constituents, to produce a cheese-like product to meet specific requirements. In cheese analogues, milk protein and milk fats are partially or wholly replaced with vegetable proteins and vegetable fats and oils. Cheese analogue are formulated and produced with desired nutritional, functional and storage properties as per the market and consumer needs.


Sales of cheese analogues are closely linked to developments in the convenience food sector [[Media:(H.P. Bachmann, 2001).pdf|(H.P. Bachmann, 2001)]]. Cheese analogs are being used increasingly due to
**Cost effectiveness (due to low cost of vegetable oils compared with butter fat)
**Simplicity of their manufacture  (no maturation)
**Can be tailor made
**Offer diverse functionality range (e.g. flowability, melt resistance, shredability, etc)
**Improved shelf life and exhibits high functional stability during storage
**Consistent in quality without seasonal variations

'''Classification of cheese analogues'''

Cheese analogs are categorized into three categories as dairy, partial dairy or non dairy, depending upon whether the fat and or protein components are from dairy or vegetable sources [[Media:(Rupesh & Jana, 2007).pdf|(Rupesh & Jana, 2007)]].
