La Vache qui Rit is a brand of processed [[Cheese|cheese]] products made by Fromageries Bel in the Jura département of Fracne-Comté, and in particular refers to the brand's most popular product, the spreadable wedge.

The [[Cheese|cheese]] is a [[Blend|blend]] of [[Cream|cream]], [[Milk|milk]] and fresh and aged [[Cheeses|cheeses]], particularly Comté, which are [[Pasteurised|pasteurised]] to stop the ripening process. The archetypal [[La Vache qui rit cheese|la vache qui rit cheese]] comes wrapped in the individual serving-sized foiled [[Wedges|wedges]], and they are packaged in a round, flat box. In various worldwide markets, it is served as squares, rectangles, slices (in mainland Europe, marketed under Toastinette), bite-sized cubes, pods (aimed at younger children) and in spreadable tubs. The Laughing [[Cow]] is also available in "cheese dippers", a [[Snack|snack]] consisting of cheese and [[Breadsticks|breadsticks]], which are marketed as The Laughing Cow Cheez Dippers (or Pik & Croq in mainland Europe), and these are in four varieties; original, light, [[Hazelnut|hazelnut]] and [[Pizza|pizza]]. 

Laughing [[Cow]] [[Cheese|cheese]] is available in its original flavour, a light version with 7% [[Fat|fat]], and an ultra-light version with 3% fat. In addition, flavoured versions of the cheese (such as [[Ham|ham]], [[G.U.|g.u.]]ère, [[Garlic|garlic]], [[Paprika|paprika]], [[Mushroom|mushroom]], chèvre, bleu, [[Hazelnut|hazelnut]], [[Pizza|pizza]] and [[Onion|onion]]) are also available in various markets worldwide. Bite-size cubes of Laughing Cow are flavoured in various countries and are designed to be eaten with [[Alcoholic drinks|alcoholic drinks]] at parties; these cubes are marketed under Cheez & 

It has long been popular in the United Kingdom as a children's [[Snack|snack]]. The [[Cheese|cheese]] has also been a constant, but hardly popular product in the United States for a number of years. However, demand for the triangular [[Wedges|wedges]] has skyrocketed recently, since the light version of the product was suggested as a viable menu item to followers of the South Beach Diet. The question asked by the [[French]], "Pourquoi La Vache Qui Rit rit?" ("Why is The Laughing [[Cow]] laughing?") has become synonymous with the product.

Groupe Bel announced on October 2, 2005, that they plan to open a 13 million euro factory in Syria. This was the first such direct investment in that nation by a [[French]] food company.
