Question

Answer 1

I'm glad you explained yourself. I was worried when you asked the difference.
Anyway, Cheese is a solid food made from the milk of cows, goats, sheep, and other mammals. Cheese is made by curdling milk using a combination of rennet (or rennet substitutes) and acidification. Bacteria acidify the milk and play a role in defining the texture and flavor of most cheeses. Some cheeses also feature molds, either on the outer rind or throughout.

Butter is basically pure milkfat and cheese is fermented whole milk mixed with enzymes and salt to thicken.
