There is nothing better than making your own cheese because it's a processed food that you know exactly what is going into it.
There is a recipe for fresh cheese that I like to use from the website below. Give it a shot. It's super easy. And new recipes are always being added to the site too.

You have one good answer so far.
You also had the joker's response.
So.
I will deal with word of caution, these is a process that can get out of hand, chance of contamination are we very good , real and likely.
When it is produce in the factories, they have a lab that look for certain harm full agents before making the cheese available to the public.
STILL.
Do not worry people are making cheese at home since Biblical times, so go ahead and enjoy the craft and art of making cheese.

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.
There are hundreds of types of cheese produced all over the world. Different styles and flavors of cheese are the result of using milk from various mammals or with different butterfat contents, employing particular species of bacteria and molds, and varying the length of aging and other processing treatments. Other factors include animal diet and the addition of flavoring agents such as herbs, spices, or wood smoke. Whether the milk is pasteurized may also affect the flavor. The yellow to red coloring of many cheeses is a result of adding annatto. Cheeses are eaten both on their own and cooked as part of various dishes; most cheeses melt when heated.
For a few cheeses, the milk is curdled by adding acids such as vinegar or lemon juice. Most cheeses, however, are acidified to a lesser degree by bacteria, which turn milk sugars into lactic acid, followed by the addition of rennet to complete the curdling. Rennet is an enzyme mixture traditionally obtained from the stomach lining of young cattle, but now also laboratory produced. Vegetarian alternatives to rennet are available; most are produced by fermentation of the fungus Mucor miehei, but others have been extracted from various species of the Cynara thistle family.
The word cheese is derived from the Middle English chese, from the Old English cīese or cēse, itself derived from the Latin caseus.
