Land O'Lakes yellow American cheese is yellow from the natural coloring from the seed of the tropical annatto plant. That is the only difference between white American cheese and yellow American cheese. Now for the real answer: The true difference between white & yellow is only food coloring, its just a marketing ploy, white sells more in northern areas of the country, while the southerners like the standard yellow, there is no noticeble taste difference. Its a manufacters way to apeal to mozzarella, Swiss or provolone lovers.

Several possibilities. White soft cheeses are not aged typically. Yellow cheeses are often smoked and are aged several months to several years. White hard cheeses are pressed to a dry hardness which doesn't yellow with age. Yellow cheeses sometimes are treated with dyes for color. White and yellow cheeses of the same type, cheddars often, are usually dyed.

Some yellow cheeses are darker than white cheese because they have been aged longer. Some are just colored with food dye.
