Domino's Cheddar Cheese Blend
Domino's cheddar cheese blend is high in histamine because the aged cheddar in it runs high.
Fast food is cooked in batches and held warm rather than made when you order it, so it is rarely as fresh as something cooked at home. That matters here because histamine builds up as protein foods sit, which means the same item can affect you differently depending on how long it waited.
This blend pairs aged cheddar with part-skim mozzarella and a little starch.
-
Cheddar cheese — cheddar is aged, and aging is exactly what lets histamine build up, so it pushes the whole blend high.
-
The mozzarella is milder — the fresher mozzarella part is not the problem, but the worst ingredient sets the level, so the cheddar carries it up regardless.
If you want a lower-histamine cheese, skipping the cheddar blend makes a real difference.
