Muenster Cheese is an American cow's milk cheese vaguely related to the French Munster Cheese.
It is creamy and soft, mild in flavor, with an orange rind and a white interior. This cheese is commonly served as an appetizer. It melts easily, which makes it popular in dishes such as grilled cheese sandwiches, tuna melts, and cheeseburgers.
