Israeli feta cheese or (Hebrew: גבינת ראש הנקרה, romanizedGvinat rosh hankara), also known as Israeli-style feta cheese or simply Israeli cheese, is a type of white cheese made from sheep's milk, cow's milk, or a combination of both. It is similar to Greek feta cheese, but has a milder flavor and a creamier texture. [1][page needed][2][page needed]
